Prompter issues since 5.3.8 (973)

[Marcus]

Hi,

having issues since 5.3.8 (973) on iOS (iPhone):

I am in the record edit view, calling the script below with Prompter, it returns ‚undefined‘, but the field has a value:

function Test(){

var res = record.getFieldValue('fld-6f8227dc16204bd19dfb062a3dec8dc8');

Utils.alertWithMessage('Test', res);

}

var Note;

let prompter = Prompter.new();
prompter.addParameter('Note ?', 'Note', 'popup', ['Test 1', 'Test 2', 'Test 3'])

.show('Message prompt', Test);

By executing without prompter I get the correct field value.

function Test(){

var res = record.getFieldValue('fld-6f8227dc16204bd19dfb062a3dec8dc8');

Utils.alertWithMessage('Test', res);

}

Test();

I don‘t believe my script is wrong because it worked as expected in the past.

Does record.getId() change between the main script and the async prompter callback?

[Marcus]

No, the ID doesn‘t change.

I tried to do something to see if I could play with it but I ended up with it not even displaying a prompter on iOS 973 whilst it works perfectly fine on the desktop (2108).

Copy of the script:

var clipboard = Utils.copyTextFromClipboard();

if (clipboard)
{
	clipboard = clipboard.split("\n")[0];
}

var tracking_number_id = 'fld-c487390743c947969cbe661cff596855';
var received_date_id = 'fld-e3e3539ee04f4cc7971c7098c572104d';
var confirmed_id = 'fld-2adb9ba8cdd048bbbb614d46b415ada5';
var alternate_tracking_numbers_id = 'fld-cf8718051bea4cc2aba0069ae76f32b7';
var alternate_tracking_number_id = 'fld-7342203d8f36415191bf8419fb6f70dc';

var callbackFunction = function(continued) {
	if (continued)
	{
		let newRecord = form.addNewRecord();
		newRecord.setFieldValue(tracking_number_id, clipboard);
		newRecord.setFieldValue(received_date_id, new Date());
		newRecord.setFieldValue(confirmed_id, true);
		document.saveAllChanges();
	}
};

function findRecord()
{
	var targetRecord = null;
	MainLoop:
	for(candidateRecord of form.getRecords())
	{
		if (clipboard == candidateRecord.getFieldValue(tracking_number_id))
		{
			targetRecord = candidateRecord;
			break MainLoop;
		}
		
		
		for (alternateRecord of candidateRecord.getFieldValue(alternate_tracking_numbers_id))
		{
			if (clipboard == alternateRecord.getFieldValue(alternate_tracking_number_id))
			{
				targetRecord = candidateRecord;
				break MainLoop;
			}
		}
	}
	
	if (targetRecord)
	{
		targetRecord.setFieldValue(received_date_id, new Date());
		targetRecord.setFieldValue(confirmed_id, true);
		document.saveAllChanges();
form.selectRecord(targetRecord);
		return "Updated existing record for " + clipboard;
	}
	else
	{
		let prompter = Prompter.new();
		prompter.cancelButtonTitle = 'No thanks';
		prompter.continueButtonTitle = 'Create record';
		prompter.show("Unable to find matching record for " + clipboard, callbackFunction);
		return "Unable to find matching record for " + clipboard;
	}
}

findRecord();

Did you execute your script from the “script edit” mode ?
From there Prompter did not show anything for me since I’m using it…

I my case the Prompter appears from the list or record edit view, but eg. getFieldValue returns “undefined”

[Brendan]

Can you post your form template so I can investigate? Or email it to me if you prefer.

[Brendan]

Actually, it seems like the Prompter isn’t working from the Script Editor. But it does work when you run it from the list of Form Scripts.

[Brendan]

I’ve fixed this for the next update.

[Marcus]

Thanks ?

[Sam Moffatt]

Works for me too, thanks!
