Limit catalog items to users with specific job title

[BrianS344076034]

I think I have 2 ways to tackle this, but looking to do it the easiest way

I have a list of catalog items that we want to limit to users that are in a specific location or have their job title contains a key word

When I look at the options to build this, i see the following

So I know I can do Location = "Head office" and Im good for that requirement.

For the second, I feel like there are 2 options

Option 1 - create a group in SN for all the users and manually have to keep it updated, then add that group to this Available for access

Option 2- if I click advanced there is a script option

Can this be scripted to be

Logged in user's job title contains General Manager ?

Yes, You can use the option 2 by writing the Script .
//Sample Script

var userID = gs.getUserID();

var checkDep = new GlideRecord('sys_user');

checkDep.addQuery('sys_id', userID);

checkDep.query();

if (checkDep.next()) {

    if (checkDep.department.getDisplayValue() == 'IT') {  // can replace the Department with jobtitle

        answer = true;

    } else

        answer = false;

}

Hi @BrianS344076034,

why not adding the users to a group while import? Like either having a VIP user group and sync it from AD to SN or adding people from a site or with a set of attributes, e.g. job title to a group. 

What do you think?

Yeah, i went the build a group route

did a one time flow of "if job title contains X add to group"

then a new ongoing flow for when a User record is created or updated, if they have X job title add to group

Thanks!
