How to use 'catalog variables' in conditions or adavanced conditions on email notifications

[Sarah Bouil]

I have written my Notification on sysaproval_approver table. So the catalog variables on RITM table. I am not sure how can I add catalog variables in condition or advanced conditions.

Just assume the catalog variable 'Access' is a Type of Select Box with options prod and non_prod.

So my Notification should be executed if the Access(catalog item variable) is non_prod.

or is it possible by writing script in Advanced condition(under When to send) like below:

var v = current.sysapproval.ref_sc_req_item.variables.access;

answer = v?"true" == v:non_prod;

I tried with above code but the notification is not triggering.

I tried to put some logs:

gs.log(v) is printing- non_admin but when I try to print gs.log(answer)- it's False so that might be the reason.

Kindly help me what was the issue with my script in advanced condition?

yes @Sarah Bouil

did you try it?

[Sarah Bouil]

but where are we checking if the type_of_role is non_admin then the notification should trigger?

@Sarah Bouil Does your who will receive section is empty? 

[Sarah Bouil]

Under Who will receive:

Users/Groups: Approver and Groups: SNow Admin

If no Advance condition then Notification is executing and its showing in Email logs

But if I have an Advanced condition, the Notification is not executing.

@Sarah Bouil,

Maybe the problem stands in the catalog items value. Check if the value corresponds to the value in the notification advanced script. 

I see no reason why it wouldn't work otherwise.
