Get workspaceID of item

[Anonymous]

I am writing a script that is supposed to check if I have a relationship from a particular workspace.

How do I do that?

I have:

for (var i in item.relationships) {
 >>>    item.relationships[i].item  <<<
}

Thanks

depending on what you want to do you can use 

if (item.relationships.length === 0){ do something //this would do somehting if the relationship array is empty i.e. there is no relationship

or 

if (item.relationships.length > 0){ do something else //this would do somehting if the relationship array is not empty i.e. there are relationships

Hope this helps

I understand, but that is not all I want to do. I want to go though each element in the relationship array to see if one of them belongs to a particular workspace.

I assume the only way I can to that is to compare it to a static workspaceID.

But I don't know how to get the workspaceID from an item (or DMSID).

Thanks

This isn't possible presently. It will become available in the coming release. The syntax will be someItem.master.workspaceID as well as someItem.master.dmsID.

Hi Martin,

Is it possible yet to get the workspaceID of an item via scripting? I have tested item.decriptor.workspaceID but it comes back as null.

Thanks,

David.

Hi Martin,

Ignore that. I just checked item.master.workspaceID and that works.

Glad you found it easily. Yes please use item.master.* to access it's properties as defined in the online AKN help. Be mindful that system doesn't handle system ids reservation yet. So a newly spawned item via script would have undefined workspaceID and dmsID as they aren't yet allocated - the item is still virtual; it commits to a tangible item in DB right after script's successful completion and is when it's IDs get assigned. Hope this helps,
