From the client-side, you will have access to the g_user object. The methods which might help you are:

- hasRole

- hasRoleExactly

 

Here's some links which might help you.

Otherwise, you will need to do a GlideAjax call or use g_scratchpad to make it available from the server-side to the client-side.

Do you want to fetch all the roles the caller has?

If yes then after fetching where do you want to display them?

Whether you're trying to find out if the user has a specific role or just trying to get all of the caller's roles, you'll need a GlideAjax call for this. You'll need a client-callable Script Include that searches the sys_user_has_role table for any Roles associated with the caller's sys_id. You'll then call that Script Include from a Client Script using GlideAjax and do what you would like with the values returned.
