Workflow error : ' GlideAjax is not defined'

[abhiyadav2001]

Hi,

I am calling a 'script include' in workflow. Script is marked as 'client callable'. This workflow is attached to 'Catalog item'.

When I create a request and check workflow, SNow is showing me an error message ; 'GlideAjax is not defined'.

Below is my code.. I dont know what am I missing here ?

// This script needs to set answer to 'yes' or 'no' to indicate the state of the activity.

//

// For example,

//

//     answer = ifScript();

//

//     function ifScript() {

//           if (condition is true) {

//                 return 'yes';

//           }

//           return 'no';

//     }

isManager();

          function isManager(){                      

                var ga = new GlideAjax('verifyIfManager'); // script include name

              ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'checkifManager') // function name to be called

      ga.addParam('sysparm_userName', groupList); // parameter

      ga.addParam('sysparm_groupName',userGroup); // parameter

      ga.getXML(parseAnswer);     } // response

// response function

function parseAnswer(response) {

var result = response.responseXML.getElementsByTagName("result");

var message = result[0].getAttribute("message");

if (message) { return 'yes' ;}

else { return 'no';}

}

Hi Harish,

below is my script include code..

checkifManager:function() {

              gs.log('*********************************************************************');

              var userName = this.getParameter('userName');

                              var groupName     = this.getParameter('groupName');

                              var isManagerofGroup = false;  

                              var result = this.newItem("result");

              result.setAttribute("message",isManagerofGroup );

                                return isManagerofGroup;

      }

I am not aware if we could add parameters to the function, tried using as below.

checkifManager:function(userName, 'groupName){

// rest of the code

}

also I called the method from workflow as,

var result = verify.checkifManager(current.userName, current.groupName);

Am I going in a right direction?

Thanks,

Abhijeet

Hi Abhijeet,

                                  Dont pass the parameters. You can write   current.current.userName in includescript .

Wite this below code in Workflow.

Workflow

_____________

gs.include("verifyIfManager");

var verify = new verifyIfManager();

var result = verify.checkifManager();

Write this below code in includescript

_____________________________

checkifManager : function(){

var userName = current.username;

var groupName = current.group_name;

write your code according to your requirement

return answer;

}

Regards,

Harish.

Hello Harish,

How would you bring the value returned in the Script Include back into the workflow script?

I know that a client script would normally use something like ga.getXML(setSomething) and then have something like the following:

function setSomething(response) {

      var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

      answer = answer.toString();

}

What would be different when using gs.include()?

Thank you,

Mel
