Script Error - Spawn and Add Task

pxedust — Tue, 08 Jun 2021 03:45:38 GMT

Hi all,

I'm trying to deploy working code from my SB to prod and am getting the following:

com.dms.model.exceptions.InvalidFieldValueException: Can only convert MultiselectWrappers and NativeArrays to Multiselect fields

I've verified that everything matches up between the 2 tenants, so I'm struggling to figure out why it works on one side and not the other. The action script is straightforward:

and the library script relatively so:

I've found and fixed a few blunders (including forgetting to update the DMSIDs to the production records), but they've not done the trick. I assume it's tied to getting the assigned users to populate, which match between the 2 tenants. I have another array issue on another project (trying to spawn a clone, but one issue at a time), so the error is doubly frustrating. Any idea what I'm overlooking?

I guess the error is thrown by this line:

spawnedTask.ASSIGNED_USERS = spawnedTask.APPROVAL_ROLE.USERS_ASSIGNED_TO_ROLE;

Do the definitions of fields ASSIGNED_USERS and USERS_ASSIGNED_TO_ROLE match? I assume that both are users picklists, right?

You may have to loop the list and add given entries:

if(spawnedTask.APPROVAL_ROLE !== null) {

for(var i = 0; i < spawnedTask.APPROVAL_ROLE.USERS_ASSIGNED_TO_ROLE.length; i++) spawnedTask.ASSIGNED_USERS.add(spawnedTask.APPROVAL_ROLE.USERS_ASSIGNED_TO_ROLE[i]);

}

Additional remark: You do not need to pass 'item' to your library script function as the function has access to this global element anyway

Further to Sven's comment... also check that the picklists have the same setting for multi- or single-select (check the radio buttons on the field definition).

I think that error comes from confusing between an array (picklist multi select) and a non-array value (picklist single select).

Thank you!!!

I went through everything (ha!) at least twice again last night, and found I'd missed this:

There's already a field with and ID of ASSIGNED_CHANGE_ROLES, so I opted to recreate the mismatch in production. Success and some very, very dorky chair dancing resulted.

Re: the passed item, I'd noticed that in the documentation but until I had everything moved over I wasn't inclined to mess with script that (in the sandbox anyway!) was working until I'd verified that the move worked. I appreciate the confirmation!

Huge thanks to both you and @philipfrench. I'm starting to get into our scripts and doing development on other projects in earnest, the assistance is invaluable!
