Not able to hide the variable set of a catalog item

[aditya174]

Hi Im trying to hide my variable set Create new group based on the selection of the request type:

Using the following code:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
//    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
//       return;
//    }
   var type = g_form.getValue('request_type');
   if(type=='create'){
	//g_form.addInfoMessage('test '+type);
	g_form.setVisible('Create_New_Group',false);
	g_form.setDisplay('Create_New_Group',false);
	
	g_form.setVisible('create_new_group',false);
	g_form.setDisplay('create_new_group',false);
   }

   //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
   
}

But it is no hiding the variable set, I've also checked there are no containers in the variable set.

Hi @aditya174 ,

I have answered this question under https://www.servicenow.com/community/developer-forum/not-able-to-hide-the-variable-set-of-a-catalog-...

Let me know that is working as expected.

Thanks,

Hello @aditya174 

I have found the mistake, replace variable set name with the variable name. You need to mention each variable that has to be variable set to false.

g_form.setDisplay('Create_New_Group',false); //replace variable set name with variable name in variable set

replace with:

g_form.setDisplay('group_name',false); //group_name is the variable name in variable set

 Here are the screenshots from my PDI:

Catalog Client script:

Updated script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
        return;
    }
    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
    var type = g_form.getValue('request_type');
    if (type == 'create') { 
        g_form.setVisible('group1', false);//group1 is the variable name in variable set
		//similarly add other variables
    } else {
        g_form.setVisible('group1', true); //To show back the variable when type is not 'create'
		//similarly add other variables
    }
}

Variable in variable set:

Result:

when request type is not create

when request type is create

Note: type == 'create', here 'create' is the value assign to the choice Create
