Check user group in App Studio - Tech Demo

[klincecum (Kevin Lincecum)]

If you want to check a group in App Studio, without a server call, you can do this:

Use a condition widget, and for the condition use:
#_Object.hasOwn(user.groups, "AGROUP")_#

---

I also made this very simple app with just a grid, and one Form_Load event with just this on a console write:

#_ trans.addRows( 'GroupList', Object.entries(user.groups).map(([key,value]) => ({ GroupID: key, GroupName: value })) ) _#

Anyway, enjoy.

I mean there’s an elegance and centralization to my method… but it might break more easily.
