Class UserAlertStatus

An object of alternate ids for this object, with values as [[AltId]]

Example

// you've marked certain forms with the FID of deprecated and want to filter for those
const warningMessage = baseObject.altIdsObject().FID.value().includes('deprecated') && 'Please use a different form';
Copy

An object of alternate ids for this object, with values as strings

Example

// you've marked certain forms with the FID of deprecated and want to filter for those
const warningMessage = baseObject.altIds().FID.includes('deprecated') && 'Please use a different form';
Copy

An array of alternate ids for this object.

Example

// you've marked certain forms with the FID of deprecated and want to filter for those
const warningMessage = baseObject.altIds().FID.includes('deprecated') && 'Please use a different form';
Copy

Same as calling optAncestor(var).orElse(null)

If this object is a Collection it returns it as an array. The majority of objects in the system are Collections. For most objects, this is the same as calling [[children]].

Example

const ids = obj.asArray().map(ob => ob);
Copy

Get the children of the object. This retrieval goes one level deep.

Example

const childrenNames = obj.children().map(child => child.displayName());
Copy

The "created at" timestamp of this object.

Example

const createdAt = `<div class="created-at">${baseObject.created()}</div>`;
Copy

The creator of this object.

Example

alert(`Guess who created this. It was ${baseObject.creator().fullName()}. They are to blame.`);
Copy

Returns a delete URL for this object, else a blank string. Following the URL will delete the object, so proceed with caution.

Example

const deleteBtn = `<button data-href="${baseObject.deleteUrl()}">Go to ${baseObject.displayName()}</button>;
Copy

The deleted children of this object. Only looks one level deep. E.g. a form's deleted children could include fields and form entries. A folder's deleted children could include folders, forms, and formulas, but not any of those forms' entries.

Example

const deleted = baseObject.deletedChildren();
Copy

The default display name of this object. For the most part, this is the same as calling toString(), which is the same as inserting the object into a string.

Example

The following assumes you have already aggregated a selection of baseObjects into an array

const displayNames = [];
for (const o of baseObjects) displayNames.push(o.displayName());
const namesList = `<ul><li>${displayNames.join('</li><li>')}</li></ul>`;
Copy

Sets the Display Name.

Returns an edit URL for this object, else a blank string.

Example

const editBtn = `<button data-href="${baseObject.editUrl()}">Go to ${baseObject}</button>`;
Copy

Gets an array of all the object's ancestors.

Example

const numberOfAncestors = obj.getAncestors().length;
Copy

The [[Id]] of this object bounded to T.

Example

const displayDiv = `<div class="object-card" id="${baseObject.id()}">
  <div class="title">${baseObject}</div>
  <div class="body">Hello World!</div>
</div>;
Copy

Returns whether the object is locked or not.

Deprecated

Part of the [[Lock]] API.

Example

const isLocked = baseObject.isLocked();
Copy

Returns whether the object is pending a lock or not.

Deprecated

Part of the [[Lock]] API.

Example

const isPendingLock = baseObject.isPendingLock();
Copy

Returns whether the object is pending an unlock or not.

Deprecated

Part of the [[Lock]] API.

Example

const lockPendingUnlock = baseObject.isPendingUnLock();
Copy

Returns the Local Cache object for this Thread/Base Object.

Same as calling optLock().orElse(null)

The modified date of this object.

Example

const isModified = baseObject.modified();
Copy

The [[User]] that last modified this object.

Example

const modifierName = baseObject.modifier().fullName();
Copy

A [[Java.Optional]] of the ancestor with the specific class.

Example

const ancestors = obj.optAncestor(1000001).ifPresent(a => console.log('${a} exists'));
Copy

Returns the [[Lock]]

Deprecated

Part of the [[Lock]] API.

Example

const lockExpire = baseObject.optLock();
Copy

A [[Java.Optional]] of the current object's parent object.

Example

const ancestors = obj.optAncestor(1000001).ifPresent(a => console.log('${a} found'));
Copy

Same as calling optParent(var).orElse(null)

Reset the current object so that it is cleared from the cache and looked up from the database.

The [[Id]] or [[AltId]] that the system deems most relevant.

Example

const displayDiv = `<div class="object-card" id="${baseObject.topId()}">
  <div class="title">${baseObject}</div>
  <div class="body">Hello World!</div>
</div>;
Copy

Returns the bluestep.js classpath for the current object.

Example

const isBool = testForm.fields.mysteryField.typeName().toLowerCase().includes('boolean')
Copy

Makes changes to the database for this object

The version of this object or empty string if it doesn't exist.

Example

const version = baseObject.version();
Copy

The versions of this object.

Example

const versions = baseObject.versions();
Copy

Returns a view URL for this object, if it has one. This value is always a relative URL, meaning it does not contain the protocol prefix or domain name such as http://xyz.bluestep.net.

Example

const viewBtn = `<button data-href="${baseObject.viewUrl()}">Go to ${baseObject.displayName()}</button>;
Copy
