Create a Group from Catalog Item and assign couple of roles to the created group

Nicky Jasper · ‎08-10-2022

I have created a Catalog item for Creating Agile groups

The requirement is to create an Agile group and add members to it and also assign couple of roles once the group is created through the Catalog item. As of now I am able to create a group and but I am only able to assign one role (scrum_user).

The requirement is to assign more than 1 role

I need to add additional roles Ex., scrum_story_creator, scrum_user, project_user, rm_task_admin, timeline_user

Please advise.

Hello @Nicky Jasper ,

try replacing your script with below please

always use .toString() while pushing the sys_ids .

i have used .toString() while pushing role sys_ids

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user_group');
gr.initialize();
gr.name = current.name = current.variables.client_name.getDisplayValue() + ' ' + current.variables.project_name.getDisplayValue() + ' Agile Group'; // <<Client Name>> <<Project Name>> Agile Group
gr.type = '1bff3b1493030200ea933007f67ffb6d'; //Type = Agile Team
gr.manager = current.variables.em_name; // Manager Name
gr.managed_domain = true; //Domain
gr.sys_domain = current.variables.client_name; // Domain Name
var grpID = gr.insert(); // Group Created

var grMember = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');
grMember.initialize();
grMember.user = current.variables.group_members;
grMember.group = grpID;
grMember.insert(); // Group member added

var roles = [];
var role = new GlideRecord('sys_user_role');
role.addEncodedQuery('nameINscrum_story_creator,scrum_user,project_user,rm_task_admin,timeline_user');
role.query();

while(role.next()){
    roles.push(role.sys_id.toString());
}

var roleID = roles.split(',');
for (var i = 0; i < roleID.length; i++) {
var grRole = new GlideRecord('sys_group_has_role');
    grRole.initialize();
    grRole.group = grpID;
    grRole.role = roleID[i]; // Scrum_story_creator, scrum_user, project_user, rm_task_admin, timeline_user
    grRole.setWorkflow(false);
    grRole.insert(); //Roles inserted to group
}

PLEASE MARK MY ANSWER CORRECT IF IT HELPS YOU
