UI Policy : Getting Display Value

[jeremyeperdue]

How can I getDisplayValue on a field while I am working in a UI Policy?

When certain criteria is met with what the user selects, I want to populate the short description with the value of the choice list. I can get the sys_id of course, what is the easiest way for me to get the display value of said field?

Hello Jeremy,

You can get the display value of the reference field with the below piece of code.

var caller = g_form.getDisplayBox('caller_id').value; //Replace caller_id with the exact field column name as per your requirement.

Sooo...is this an undocumented, thus, unsupported method?   I don't see a reference to getDisplayBox on the g_form wiki.

I don't see a LOT of documentation on the wiki 😕

I needed to re-size a glideDialogForm the other day and had to find a one off post like this to find the answer. The wiki needs serious help. js
