Dear Team,

I have the following in my CreateTicketJson:    

...."httpParams": "{\"CreatedBy\":\"reqAttrs.name\",\"Source\": \"Email\", \"RecID\": \"if(reqAttrs.heat_requestor.isEmpty() || reqAttrs.heat_requestor=='' || reqAttrs.heat_requestor==null){$requestor}else{reqAttrs.heat_requestor}\",....

   I want to check if attribute a is empty and if true then select $requestor else I want to insert the attribute a for RecID.

Is there a way on hwo to do that?

Thanks

Best Regards

Faizal,

If you are using dynamic attributes, can you set a default value for it so that you can check against and then process your logic. Might be simpler that way.

I just had a really basic syntax error. 

below is the right way on how to write it starting from the RecID:

RecID\":\"${if(reqAttrs.heat_requestor.isEmpty() || reqAttrs.heat_requestor=='' || reqAttrs.heat_requestor==null){$requestor}else{reqAttrs.heat_requestor}}\",
