Hello Community,
I'm trying to conditionally hide a Declarative Action ("New") in a Record List Component within a workspace based on the parent record's field value.
Setup:
- Parent Table: x_parent_table (appears in workspace)
- Child Table: x_child_table (related list via Record List Component)
- Relationship: Child Table has a reference field cfem pointing to parent
- Goal: Hide the "New" action when parent.stage = 'locked'
What I've Tried:
1. Client Conditions in Declarative Action:
- The Action Model Fields dropdown doesn't include any parent or parentRecord field
- Only shows fields from the Facilities table itself (query, count, groupBy, limit, page, etc.)
- No access to parent record context
2. Script Condition in Declarative Action:
javascript
var cfemGR = new GlideRecord(childTable);
if (cfemGR.get(current.cfem)) {
return cfemGR.getValue('stage') != 'locked';
}
return true;- current is not available in this context
- Script condition doesn't execute or has no effect
Limitations Found:
- Declarative Actions don't have access to current record in Script Conditions when used in Record List Components
- Client Conditions Action Model doesn't expose parent record context
- Cannot reference parent fields through the child relationship
Question:
How can I conditionally show/hide a Declarative Action in a Record List Component based on the parent record's field value?
Is this possible through:
- UI Builder component configuration?
- Client State Parameters?
- A different approach entirely?
Any guidance or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!
