Script to check if user is part of existing group

[Revathi12]

Hi Team,

I have a requirement where I have 2 fields existing groups and add new group. In existing group I'm populating the groups which are already mapped to user. Whereas in the field Add New I need to populate the groups which are not mapped for the user and he should select only those groups.

Note both are of list collector variable types. Below is the script

Script Include :-

getNewGroups: function() {

        var groups1 = [];

        var groupName = this.getParameter('sysparm_group_name');

        var gr1 = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

        gr1.addQuery('group.name', groupName);

        gr1.addQuery('user',gs.getUserID());

        gr1.query();

       while (gr1.next()) {

             groups1.push(gr1.getDisplayValue('group.name'));

        }

        return groups1.toString();

    },

Client Script :-

alert ("tst1"+newValue);

var ga = new GlideAjax('POC_RN');

ga.addParam('sysparm_name', 'getNewGroups');

ga.addParam('sysparm_group_name',newValue);

ga.getXML(getResults);

function getResults(response) {

    var answer = response.responseXML.documentElement.getAttribute("answer");

    if(answer!=''){

    g_form.addInfoMessage("group already exists");

   g_form.clearValue('add_new');

   }

   else {

    g_form.setValue('add_new', newValue);

   }

}

All looks good....!!

It's strange...why its not working...

Can you put some logs in script include and check if you are getting the groups in array...!!

It is working for logged in user, however when we try to change requested for value its always quering logged in user only due to getUserID();
