What is the symbol for contains in a script?

[Kifrez]

Hi

Could you please help me with the following script?
I would like to change to include 'contains' of the catalog item instead of equal to

gr.cat_item.name contains "User account" doesn't seem to be correct.

answer = ifScript();
function ifScript() {
	if (gr.cat_item.name == "User account" && gr.variables.business_unit == "IT") {
		return 'Yes';
	}
	return 'No';
}

Thanks for the help!

Hi,

Can you try:

answer = ifScript();
function ifScript() {
var catItemName = gr.cat_item.name.toString();
var businessUnit = gr.variables.business_unit.toString();
if(catItemName.includes('User account') && businessUnit.includes('IT'){
		return 'Yes';
	}
	return 'No';
}

Hope this helps.

Please mark my answer as Correct/Helpful based on impact

Regards,

Hi @Dan H thanks for your response.

However, it didn't seem to work.
Actually my original script was

answer = ifScript();
function ifScript() {
	var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
	gr.addQuery("request", current.getUniqueValue());
	gr.query();
	if (gr.next()) {
		if (gr.cat_item.name == "User Account" && gr.variables.business_unit.getDisplayValue() == "IT") {
			return 'yes';
		}
		return 'no';
	}
}

This is what I change my script to as below

answer = ifScript();
function ifScript() {
	var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");
        var catItemName = gr.cat_item.name.toString();
 	var businessUnit = gr.variables.business_unit.getDisplayValue();
	gr.addQuery("request", current.getUniqueValue());
	gr.query();
	if (gr.next()) {
		if (catItemName.includes("User Account") && businessUnit == "IT") {
			return 'yes';
		}
		return 'no';
	}
}

Hi, You’re assigned values before the gr query is happening so they will always be empty.

sorry for phone formatting 

answer = ifScript();
 function ifScript() { 
var gr = new GlideRecord("sc_req_item");

gr.addQuery("request", current.getUniqueValue());

gr.query(); 

if (gr.next()) { 
var catItemName = gr.cat_item.name.toString(); var businessUnit = gr.variables.business_unit.getDisplayValue(); 


if (catItemName.includes("User Account") && businessUnit == "IT"){ 
return 'yes';
} 
return 'no'; }
 }

It should be more like that.if you’re having issues still add some gs.logs and check the values of cat item name and business values at different points Hope this helps.
