User criteria to allow only users under specific manager

[Ben42]

Hello Devs,

I want to create a user criteria to restrict knowledge articles to all the users under specific manager 'John'. And I want to do it by script so that it will be dynamic. 

How can I do that?

I tried below script but did not work.

var usr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

usr.addEncodedQuery('manager=05ccebc7dba3e340fasd34g5ca961952'); //John.

usr.query();

if (usr.hasNext()) {

    answer = true;

} else {

    answer = false;

}

Thanks,

Ben.

your script does not check if logged user has this specific manager

it shall be like this:

var sysId = user_id;

var usr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

usr.addEncodedQuery('sys_id'+sysId +'^manager=05ccebc7dba3e340fasd34g5ca961952'); //John.

usr.query();

if (usr.hasNext()) {

    answer = true;

} else {

    answer = false;

}
