server equivalent of hasroleExactly

sreedharkaliset · ‎06-29-2019

Hi,

Is there a server equivalent of g_user.hasRoleExactly

gs.hasRole returns true for admin and userHasRoleExactly works only client side

Regards,

Sreedhar

Hi Sreedhar,

you don't have server side function for that; use below code and store it in some script include; then you can call this and re-use it like from every server side script

hasRoleExactlyServerSide: function(){

var au = new ArrayUtil();
var roles = gs.getSession().getRoles() + ''; 
var roleArray = roles.split(","); 
var isRolePresent = au.contains(roleArray, role); 

return isRolePresent;

}

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks

You're absolutely right! That's a great point. It could also be !=-1, but >0 is not going to work if that role is the first one in the list.
