Action framework - Configure action group - Visibility script

[ChrisPy]

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out what code can be used in the Visibility script for Action groups:

Configure Action Groups 

The docs only mentions a small piece of code :

answer = context.state.toString() === 'requested';

I've never come across the 'context' object and unfortunately cannot find any documentation on this.

What are my options here?

I can use the above code to show/hide the UI action button on the My Tasks form for certain states.
But I obviously also want to check if the current user is the logged in user.
So should I check g_user against context.opened_by or is context.user a thing?

Please note the also as Action visibility can be set to Visible to self which excludes the state check.

So after some testing it seems GlideSystem can be accessed and the context-object is similar to the content of a gliderecord containing each field on the sourcetable as an object.
So getting the field like context.opened_by.toString() works fine and comparing it to gs.getUserID() fulfills my need here.

Hope someone else will find this post useful! 🙂
