How to check whether the current user has particular role using that role's sysid?

[kutvaram]

Hi All,

In ACL, how to check whether the logged in user has particular role?

I know we can achieve it by using the method "hasRole".Example - gs.hasRole("RoleName");

But, I want to check it by comparing it with Role Sys Id.

How to do that?

Any Ideas?

Thanks & Regards,

You could have an ACL script like this if you want to do it that way. Make sure you put the role's sys_id in the yourRoleSysId variable below. then the script will tell you if that user has the role by sys_id

(function() {
  var yourRoleSysId = '';
  var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user_has_role');
  gr.addQuery('role', yourRoleSysId);
  gr.addQuery('user', gs.getUserID());
  gr.setLimit(1);
  gr.query();
  return gr.hasNext();
})();
