indexOf or includes not working for System Properties having multiple comma separated values

[Community Alums]

Hi All, 

I'm facing strange issue in our platform that both indexOf() and includes() is giving unexpected output.Also I verified this works fine for single value,only issues are occuring when values are seperated by comma or like multiple values. Suspecting to break many codes. Need help.

Below script is giving '-1'/'false' as output.

var abc= '6a225461db861c50d4002db614961967';
gs.info(abc.includes(gs.getProperty('property_name')));

System Property:

We can easily overlook certain things, right!

Happened with me several times 😉

Thanks Aman for the RCA.

Hi,

you can use OOB ArrayUtil class to check using contains function instead of indexOf

var abc= '6a225461db861c50d4002db614961967';

var arr = gs.getProperty('property_name').toString().split(',');

var arrayUtil = new global.ArrayUtil();

var isPresent = arrayUtil.contains(arr,abc);

gs.info(isPresent);

ArrayUtil - Global
