If the user submits this request it going to manager approval then need create a Story record (rm_story table). For this i have added approval in workflow and once it is approved i have added Runscript for creating Story record. I have written the below  script:

var userGr = new GlideRecord("rm_story");
userGr.initialize();
userGr.description = current.variables.type_2.getLabel().getDisplayValue() + ' ' + current.variables.type_2.getDisplayValue();
userGr.insert();

 I have tried for One variable it is showing "undefined" in Description field.

 

I need in Story form description field should auto populate data from Variables data. If the User enter more then One row need show in new Line.

You need to loop through the MRVS to get the Values of each row in your workflow run script

 

var mrvsDetails = current.variables.<Your MRVS Name>;
//gs.log("JSON Object = ") + mrvsDetails;
var parser = JSON.parse(mrvsDetails);

/*GlideRecord on 'Story Table' & loop through each record for MRVS*/
for (var i = 0; i < parser.length; i++) {
var grStory = new GlideRecord("<Story_Table_Name>");
grStory.initialize()
grStory.description = parser[i].<variable_name1 from MRVS> + parser[i].<variable_name2 from MRVS> ;
grStory.insert();
}

 

 

Hope this works for you...!!

Hi @Vishal Birajdar , 

 

Thanks for your quick reply. 

 

I have tried to add this script, It is getting backend values (like i added type variable data that is choice type field. in story description it is giving value of the choice.), And also i need show variable label also before the data.
