If element exists in an array then remove it from the array

[Ankita9793]

Hi All

My requirement is, if '5b806c328396c6105fc86770deaad354' is present in 'entitlements' then remove it from 'entitlements'. Can someone please suggest what is wrong with the code.

var entitlements = ['0678191f1b13a4d06c3c2f007e4bcb9b','5b806c328396c6105fc86770deaad354'];

var mdmadldsgrp = '5b806c328396c6105fc86770deaad354';

var ent_list = entitlements.split(',');

var cat_item = 'Mobile - NEW';

if (cat_item == "Mobile - NEW"); {

    gs.print('entitlements1 indexOf' + entitlements.indexOf(mdmadldsgrp) +ent_list);

    for (var i = 0; i <= entitlements.length; i++) {

    if (entitlements.indexOf(mdmadldsgrp) >= -1) {

        entitlements.splice(mdmadldsgrp);

        // ent_list.splice(ent_list.indexOf(mdmadldsgrp),1);

        // ent_list.splice(ent_list.indexOf(mdmadldsgrp), 1);

        // entitlements = ent_list;

        gs.print('entitlements1 splice' +  ent_list);

    }

}

// gs.print('entitlements2' + entitlements);

 }

TIA!!

You can take this sample code as reference

var array_entitlements = ['a', 'b', 'c'];

const index = array_entitlements.indexOf('b');
if (index !== -1) {
  array_entitlements.splice(index, 1); // Removes 'b' at the found index
}

console.log(array_entitlements); // Output: ['a', 'c']

Hi @Ankita9793 ,

Try this

var entitlements = ['0678191f1b13a4d06c3c2f007e4bcb9b', '5b806c328396c6105fc86770deaad354'];
var mdmadldsgrp = '5b806c328396c6105fc86770deaad354';
var cat_item = 'Mobile - NEW';

if (cat_item == "Mobile - NEW") {
    var index = entitlements.indexOf(mdmadldsgrp);
    if (index > -1) {
        entitlements.splice(index, 1); // Remove the item at the found index
        gs.print('Updated entitlements: ' + entitlements);
    } else {
        gs.print('Group not found in entitlements.');
    }
}

Hi @Ankita9793 ,

line 4 and 5

var cat_item = 'Mobile - NEW';

if (cat_item == "Mobile - NEW"); {

already hardcoded variable value , they what is need to check?

sys_id don't use directly in the script , please use properties to fetch the sys_id , ie, best properties
