User details on client script

[ceraulo]

Hello!

How do I get other current user details (example location, department, phone) in a client script?

Thank you.

Hi,

Write below code in Display BR

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
gr.get(gs.getUserID());
g_scratchpad.location = gr.location.name;
g_scratchpad.department = gr.department.name;
g_scratchpad.number = gr.mobile_phone;

Write Below code in onLoad client script

g_form.addInfoMessage(g_scratchpad.location); 
g_form.addInfoMessage(g_scratchpad.department); 
g_form.addInfoMessage(g_scratchpad.number);

It works! Thank you so much.

I have one more problem. I want to populate these values to the additional comments field on load.

I tried the code below but it isn't working.

g_form.comments = g_scratchpad.location + " " + g_scratchpad.department + " " + g_scratchpad.number;

Try as below,

g_form.setValue('comments', g_scratchpad.location + " " + g_scratchpad.department + " " + g_scratchpad.number);

Try like this also,

var detail = g_scratchpad.location + " " + g_scratchpad.department + " " + g_scratchpad.number;
g_form.setValue('comments',detail);
