How to populate task short description based on the catalog variable choice

[Gagandeep]

I want to populate the task short description based on the choice value of the catalog item variable in a Flow Designer. Please guide

You need to use get catalog variable flow designer action to get catalog variable value and then use update record action.

This is about populating the short description in the task based on choice selected for a variable

This is not something as per my requirement. I want the task description to get populated based on variable drop down choice selected

I often do this in the workflow by including a "run script" variable.

var sDesc =  "Fix: " + current.variables.vehicle_number;

current.short_description = sDesc;
var gr = new GlideRecord('sc_request');
gr.addQuery('sys_id',current.request);
gr.query();

if(gr.next()){
	gr.short_description = sDesc;
	gr.update();
}
