UI Policy if a user is part of a group make variables editable

Joshua Comeau · ‎03-22-2023

I have the following and does not work any ideas on the reason?

Johns Marokky · ‎03-22-2023

Please create the Script include as per below image. While saving it will ask for roles make sure you give the role that the user has (eg. lTIL) then only the script will be executed.

Script

var CheckMemberOfGroup = Class.create();
CheckMemberOfGroup.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {

	iSMemberOfGroup : function(){
		var getGroupName = gs.getParameter('sysparm_groupName');
		var result = gs.getUser().isMemberOf(getGroupName);
		return result;
	},

    type: 'CheckMemberOfGroup'
});

now in the UI Policy / Client scripts use the below script as shown in image (if there is no condition to be checked i prefer to use OnLoad Client Script)

Script:

var checkMember = new GlideAjax("CheckMemberOfGroup");
    checkMember.addParam('sysparm_name', "iSMemberOfGroup");
    checkMember.addParam('sysparm_groupName', "Analysts");  //give the correct Group Name Here
    checkMember.getXMLAnswer(callbackFunction);

    function callbackFunction(answer) {
        if (answer) {
            g_form.setVariablesReadOnly(false);

        }
    }

@Joshua Comeau ,

"gs" is the server side library, it will not work in client script.

Could you assist on writing the code

Hi @Joshua Comeau ,

gs won't work in UI Side. its an Server side scripts.

What you can do is you can create an script include which checks the user is part of particular member or not and use the GlideAjax to call the script include in the client script.

Let me know if you need help with building the scripts for this.

Mark helpful if it helps in solving your query.
