compare array value with hardcoded string

[avanis]

Below is the code getting values from catalog item variable and converting it to array.

variable type is list collector having values for Role.

I need to add something to description at the end for a particular Role, but unable to find way to do it.

var Roles = current.variables.w_role+"";

var roles = Roles.split(',');

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

{

  var wRoleTable = new GlideRecord("tablename");

        wRoleTable.addQuery("sys_id",roles[i]);

        wRoleTable.query();

                  if(wRoleTable.next())

  {

    task.description += (i+1)+" : "+wRoleTable.u_usage_role+"\n";

  }

}

I was trying this code but it doesn;t seem to work.

if(roles.indexOf("Project Manager") >= 0)

  {

  task.description += "Please add this user to the XXX group."+ "\n";

  }

Any suggestions to try here please ?

Hi Avani,

Can you try replacing roles with Roles (R in caps)

if(Roles.indexOf("Project Manager") >= 0)

  {

  task.description += "Please add this user to the XXX group."+ "\n";

  }

Thank You

I tried this,but doesn't seem to work.. 😞

var Roles = current.variables.w_role+"";

var roles = Roles.split(',');

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

{

  var wRoleTable = new GlideRecord("tablename");

        wRoleTable.addQuery("sys_id",roles[i]);

        wRoleTable.query();

                  if(wRoleTable.next())

  {

    task.description += (i+1)+" : "+wRoleTable.u_usage_role+"\n";

  }

}

if(Roles.indexOf("Project Manager") >= 0)

  {

  task.description += "Please add this user to the XXX group."+ "\n";

  }

In the line var Roles = current.variables.w_role+"";

Are you sure Roles are returning proper role names or is it the Sys_id of roles? Can you try logging the value of Roles variable?

Thank You

Hi,

I guess it is returning the sys ID as in below gliderecord query we are comparing it with sys ID.

but how to convert it into value, i tried it with ".value" but it doesnt work...
