getReference() is not working in scoped app

[Ashwini Jadhao]

Hi,

I have written the onChange client script on "time_machine_name" variable to add and remove the option from the select box variable.

script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
// if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
// return;
// }

var tmName = g_form.getDisplayBox('time_machine_name').value;
var addDB = g_form.getReference('tmName', addOptionInDBType);

function addOptionInDBType(addDB) {
alert('inside function');
if (addDB.type == 'oracle_database')
alert('insideif'+addDB.type);
g_form.addOption('databaseType', 'oracle_database_clone', 'Oracle');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'saphana_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'sqlserver_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'postgres_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'mysql_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'mariadb_database_clone');
}
}

Could you please help me where i am doing wrong?

Hi,

Can you explain what is required exactly?

time_machine_name -> is reference variable; so based on value of type field of this table you want to add and remove the options

It is recommended to use GlideAjax instead of getReference() with callback method

But if you require to use getReference() then below is the updated script

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

var addDB = g_form.getReference('time_machine_name', addOptionInDBType);

function addOptionInDBType(addDB) {
alert('inside function');
if (addDB.type == 'oracle_database')
alert('insideif'+addDB.type);
g_form.addOption('databaseType', 'oracle_database_clone', 'Oracle');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'saphana_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'sqlserver_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'postgres_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'mysql_database_clone');
g_form.removeOption('databaseType', 'mariadb_database_clone');
}
}
