onsubmit client script to check for attachments before submitting

[Anubhav Srivas1]

Hello Experts,

I need a onsubmit client sprint which should check for attachments if the request_type = grant or modfiy.

system should not allow the request to be submitted until the attachment is attached.

for revoke it should not check for attachment and allow order now.

Hi,
Please refer below script

	
	try {
		
		length = angular.element("#sc_cat_item").scope().attachments.length;
		
	} catch(e) {
		
		length = -1;
		
	}
	if(length>0)
alert(""attachment is there);


	return length;

You can create a function in UI script as below 

In the portal theme widget's JS include related list create a record as below

Now in onsubmit client script use below script

var count = getSCAttachmentCount();
alert("Attcah Count: "+count )

Hello @Anubhav Srivas1 ,

You can try below onsubmit client script

function onSubmit() {

var cat_id = gel('sysparm_item_guid').value;

var gr = new GlideRecord("sys_attachment");

gr.addQuery("table_name", "sc_cart_item");

gr.addQuery("table_sys_id", cat_id);

gr.query();

if (!gr.next()) {

alert("You must attach a file to submit.");

return false;

}

}

Hello Omkar,

i'm using this script but getting an error

function onSubmit() {

if (g_form.getValue('request_type') == 'grant'); { // This is the field value of the question you want to check
try {

var msg = 'This request requires an attachment. Please review the form and try again.';

var attachments = document.getElementById('header_attachment_list_label');

if (attachments.style.visibility == 'hidden' || attachments.style.display == 'none') {
alert(msg);
return false;
}

}

//For Service Portal
catch (e) {
var count = getSCAttachmentCount();
if (count <= 0) {
alert(msg);

return false;
}

}
}

}

Please try the below catalog client script (onSubmit)

function onSubmit() {
 
    if (g_form.getValue('your_variable') == "your_variable_value") { // This is the field value of the question you want to check
        try {

            var msg = 'This request requires an attachment. Please review the form and try again.';
          
  var attachments = document.getElementById('header_attachment_list_label');
  
            if (attachments.style.visibility == 'hidden' || attachments.style.display == 'none') {
                alert(msg);
                return false;
            }
        
        }

        //For Service Portal
        catch (e) {
            var count = getSCAttachmentCount();
            if (count <= 0) {
                alert(msg);

                return false;
            }

        }
    }
