Caused by error in Access Control: 'x_mkgaa_non_confor_non_conformance_tasks.assigned_to' at line 2

Hey,

I just replied to your other thread. Use

gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.toString())

gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.sys_id+'')

Try below instead

if(gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.toString()))

if(gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.name))

Hello everyone ,

I got my answer .

Actually gs.getUser().isMemberOf doesnot work in SCOPED APPLICATION.

Please refer the lonk:

Configure the ServiceNow-initiated Qualys IP scan

I implemeted their script and it worked.

Hi Prerna,

As I understand there is a lot of issuses with the gs.getUser()... etc. in scoped apps. gs.getUserID() should work, so sadly I think you need to just do a normal GlideRecord query with that and fetch the info through it.

U can always do something like

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user_grmember');

gr.addQuery('group',current.assignment_group);

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

gr.query();

if(gr.hasNext() {

answer = true;

}

 gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.getDisplayValue())

This is working for me in a Scoped App, as a condition on a UI Action

Please note that you never want to use code like:

current.assignment_group.sys_id

Instead do this:

current.getValue( 'assignment_group' )

Dot walking to a 'sys_id' actually LOOKS UP the 'assignment_group' by 'sys_id' only for the record to be used to return the 'sys_id'. It is a completely wasted lookup.

gs.getUser().isMemberOf(current.assignment_group.toString())

This one works!
