Add multiple email addresses to List Collector on Service Portal/Catalog

Hello.

Within a catalog item, we have two fields. One is for the user's name the other for their email address.

I've used the table 'sys_user' for both fields. When the user's name is populated, I have it automatically adding their email address to the specific email field, both with 'List Collector' as their variable type.

Issue I am having, is if multiple users are added to the User field, no email address (even previously displayed for the first user) will be displayed. How do I get each additional email address to be displayed in the List Collector / email field?

Hi Mairvette,

Can you please share your script here.

the only script is the catalog client script, to autopopulate the email field once the user is added to the user field:

In your script you are getting a comma separated sys_ids and that's why you are not able to use getReference properly to get the email Id of unique record.

Instead you can change your script like this:

 

var ids = g_form.getValue('users_add').toString().split(','); // to get the comma separated ids.

var emailids='';

var user;

for(var i=0; i<ids.length;i++)

{

user = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

user.query('sys_id',ids[i]);

user.query(myCallbackFunction);

}

 

function myCallbackFunction(user){

if(user.next())

{

if(emailids ='')

{

emailids=user.email;  // for first record

}

else{

emailds = emailids + ','+user.email; if multiple records

}

}

}

g_form.setValue('email_address_add',emailds);

 

This should solve the purpose. Please try and let me know!!
