How to get task short description value in Multi Row Variable set

[puneetgoels1]

I have a requirement to display / hide a variable in Multi Row Variableset on the basis of value of task's short description but I am not able to fetch it.  I know we can fetch value of a variable in parent form using g_service_catalog.parent.getValue but this does not help when I am trying to fetch short description or description of the task

Hi,

Create a hidden variable and populate it with the task description value using onLoad client script

Use below to fetch description value

g_service_catalog.parent.getValue("hidden_variable_name")
