Variables in a variable set

miyu · ‎05-27-2021

I want to get the value of a variable in a variable set in a catalog client script.
How do I set up the catalog client script?

Hi Miyu,

Is your variable set a normal variable set or multirow variable set?

For a normal variable set you can retrieve the value as follow:
var a = g_form.getValue('yourvariablename');

For multiRow variable set following is the syntax:
var serv = g_form.getValue('variableSetName');
var servData = JSON.parse(serv);

After parsing the JSON you can reterive the values:

var a = servData[i].yourvariablename;

here i is the index from which you want to reterive data.

Also you can define an array and store data in that array if there is multiple values.
var appSerSysIDList = [];

for (i = 0; i < servData.length; i++)
appSerSysIDList = appSerSysIDList + servData[i].yourvariablename+ '\n';
g_form.setValue('varName_where_you_want _to_store', appSerSysIDList.trim());

Please reach out if you need more clarification regarding multirow variable set.

Hope this helps.
Please mark the answer correct/helpful as applicable.

Hi,

Try with this,

In Catalog Client script:

g_form.getValue('Name OF Variable');

In Server Side Operation

var variable_value = current.variables.variableName;

You can also perform the dot walking in case of reference field.

Thanks,

@miyu

it is the same syntax as that of normal variable even if your variable is inside variable set

g_form.getValue('variableName');
