Show more results as Catalog Item Variable for specific group

[AdamUMC]

Hi,

I have a catalog item variable that references "cmdb_ci_business_app".

Now, I want that variable to only show results that:
1. Are Active
2. Have the status "In Production"
3. Managed By Group, which must be one of the groups the person is a member of

If the person is a member of a specific group, say "SpecialGroup", then point 3 can be omitted.

How can I easily achieve this? I've tried several solutions, but nothing works.

Thanks!

You need to use an Advanced Reference Qualifier that calls a Script Include.  The SI will use GlideRecord to query the referenced table to return records that meet 1. and 2., then for each record that meets 3, push the sys_id to an array.  The return from the SI will be like 'sys_idIN' then the comma-separated joined array.  There are many examples of this.  Give it a shot and post your reference qualifier and script if you get stuck.

Thanks @Brad Bowman  ,

I have already tried this once, but unfortiunately it didn't work properly.
Will try agai and post here script include and advanced reference qual.

@AdamUMC 

try this in advanced ref qualifier on that variable

-> ensure you replace your correct group name

-> ensure you replace : with : as there is a known issue when we reply in community it converts that character

javascript: var query = '';
if (gs.getUser().isMemberOf('SpecialGroup'))
    query = 'active=true^install_status=1';
else {
    var groupsArr = new global.ArrayUtil().convertArray(gs.getUser().getMyGroups());
    query = 'active=true^install_status=1^managed_by_group.sys_idIN' + groupsArr.toString();
}
query;
