Hello , 

How to write script in user criteria so that if their is an article in German language then the knowledge author and owner of that article can view the article irrespective of whatever is their language?

if (userGR.preferred_language == 'de'|| current.u_owner == gs.getUserID() || current.author==gs.getUserID()) {
return true;
}

this script is partially working 

Thanks

the language to compare should be de and not es

var userGR = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
userGR.get(user_id);
if (userGR.preferred_language.toString() == 'de'|| current.u_owner == user_id || current.author== user_id) {
answer = true;
}
answer = false;

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

var userGR = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
userGR.get(user_id);
if (userGR.preferred_language == 'de'|| current.u_owner == gs.getUserID() || current.author==gs.getUserID()) {
return true;

Hello Ankur , 

The script works perfectly fine for checking german language users , but as I add author and owner script it gives access to all KB's to authors and owners 

if (userGR.preferred_language == 'de') {
return true;
}
return false;

if logged in user is German then they should see all irrespective of the author or owner?

if logged in user is not German then they should see articles only if they are owner or author?

Is my understanding correct?
