Please note also that if you're on a reasonably modern version of Appian, you should be using the newer function a!isUserMemberOfGroups(), which automatically handles checking many groups (and built-in logic for requiring the user to be a member of all listed groups or any listed groups).

 if(
        isusermemberofgroup(
          ri!approver_txt,
          {
            cons!CR_GRP_BOARD_OF_DIRECTORS_GROUP
          }

Check with below code, If it throws same error check the groups security.

if(
  not(isusernametaken(ri!approver_txt)),
  cons!CR_NEXT_AUTHORITY_VALIDATION_MESSAGE[2],
  if(
    ri!approver_txt = loggedInUser(),
    cons!CR_NEXT_AUTHORITY_VALIDATION_MESSAGE[1],
    if(
      a!isUserMemberOfGroup(
        ri!approver_txt,
        {
          cons!CR_GRP_ALL_CCC_USER_GROUP,
          cons!CR_GRP_BOARD_OF_DIRECTORS_GROUP
        }
      ),
      cons!CR_NEXT_AUTHORITY_VALIDATION_MESSAGE[3],
      null
    )
  )
)

Isusermemberofgroup returns boolean value but here your checking with Text/user type, Don't check the value use Isusermemberofgroup alone like below.

Hi,

you can update you logic like below

if(
    a!isUserMemberOfGroup(
    ri!approver_txt,
    cons!CR_GRP_ALL_CCC_USER_GROUP
    ),
    cons!CR_NEXT_AUTHORITY_VALIDATION_MESSAGE[3],
    ""
)

Thanks Laurens, I did not spot that.

You are not checking for the selected user, but always for the logged in user, which is you.

Please note that function loggedInUser() does not have parameters. You can remove it and pass the username as first parameter of the a!isUserMemberOfGroup() function.

If this does not resolve your issue you may not have enough rights to view the users or group contents you are requesting. Check group visibility policies for this.

my logic is showing warning message to all selected users but not some particular user

for ex: all users- abc,xyz,pqr,wtu,ijk

for users - abc,wtu when i select these users then it has to show warning message

my logic is showing warning message when i select pqr/xyz

OK, but what is wrong with it? What did you do to test your logic?

RE: validation

KM — Tue, 10 May 2022 08:23:57 GMT

yes, if the selected user is belongs to that user then show error/warning message

RE: validation

Stefan Helzle — Tue, 10 May 2022 08:14:27 GMT

Your logic shows the message in case the user is a member of that group. Is that what you want?
