Service Catalog Attachment Required

[Paulo Freire Ferrarini]

It is possible to configure service catalog to allow attachemnts required configuring it via form script instead of using the default option in service option group?

Hi,

 

Yes it's possible.  We use the following JavaScript to check the number of attachments associated with the request.  This script sets a variable to the number next to the Attachments link.

var attachments = document.getElementsByName("attachments-1")[0].innerText.match(/\(([^)]+)\)/)[1];
if(attachments == 0){
  alert("Please add an attachment then press Submit again.");
  return false;
} else {
  console.log(attachments + ' attachments found');
  return true;
} 

 

You can use this in an onSubmit function to stop the user from submitting the form if they haven't added an attachment.

Hi this solution works, but only for service catalog.

In my case I´m accessign catalog through USS and in USS there is no link and count for attachments in page.

If someone has another solution I will thank

Any other ideas to make a solution like this work acessing catalog via USS interface, because in USS we don´t have the attachments count like in catalog page.

Good Morning Paulo.

Perhaps the following can then help you further for the USS environment?

Service Catalog provides a method to create your own custom JavaScript functions in a central location.
Which is USM_Home\filestore\custom\explorer\scripts\custom_form_lib.js file.
So they can be called from multiple forms and from multiple places.
This is great and very useful for reducing maintenance for common functions.

As in an example:

Custom js file:
function mytest() {
alert(2);
}

Form: onLoad = mytest()

Thanks and kind regards, Louis.
