Hi All,

May i please know, How to Hide a variable on the portal i have a variable on the portal which I am hiding using a client script

but on Portal it is getting retained no matter what.

I tried using the UI policy/client script and it doesn't work on portal.

Client script:

function onLoad(){

var url = top.location.href;

if(url.indexOf('/sp') > -1){

// this is sp page and hide the variable

g_form.setDisplay('fiedname', false);

}

}

ui policy:

g_form.setDisplay('fieldname', false);

This will be very helpful if I get a solution to this.

 

Thanks,

Saurabh

Hi,

If you only want to hide/show a variable in the Service portal, there is no need to script, you could create a Catalog UI policy and a UI policy action to show/hide that variable depending on your selections (other variables).

Just make sure that the UI policy is set to run in portal.

Hi Olan,

I have tried this as well in our instance no matter what it always keeps showing up on the created RITM details section.

Hi Olan,

 

The script/ui policy works perfectly on the form level but on the portal this field stays back no matter what we do.

Okay,

Things to check.

Is the variable marked as mandatory?
Are there other (conflicting) Catalog UI Policies / Catalog Client Scripts?
