Check Associated Record Value Javascript

Posted on by M4ttg1lbert

Hope somebody can help. I'm trying to create some code that checks an associated (let's call it 'Preference) record's value when selecting the same value from a new ('Preference') record for a contact. It should then display an error message if that value within an existing ("Preference') record exists. Sorry if that's a bit vague. New to this.

Any help would be super appreciated!

The latter is probably favourable. Will give it a go when I get a chance.

Hi,

If you want to check/retrieve value from other record in JavaScript, you will have to use WebAPI to query that record. Take a look at the below article-

Hope this helps.

Hi,

may I ask, why don't you use a duplicate detection rule?

It seems to me like the perfect choice to fulfill your requirement!

If you wanna do it using ha, then write down a function that retrieve the preference record and add a validation function like this:

Hope it helps!
