Custom tasks for AD groups?

JD_Keith

I'm wondering how I can scope custom tasks to only be available for specific AD groups.  Thanks for the help!

I made this script that uses the API to retrieve the logged in users group membership. It's very quickly made, but hope you get the idea

var GroupName = "DOMAIN\\MyADGroup"
$.ajax({
		url: 'http://' + window.location.host + '/api/V3/User/GetUsersGroups',
		async: true, //this is the default but showing that it can be turned off
		data: {
			id: session.user.Id		
		},
		type: "GET", //this particular portal API call is a GET type
		statusCode: {
			200: function (data) {
			    //Call function to hide or show task
				hideShowTask(data);

			}
		},
		error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
			//debug console.log(errorThrown);
			//debug console.log(textStatus);
		}
	});



function hideShowTask (data)
{
    var IsMemberOfGroup = false;
    //for each returned group that user is member of..
    $(data).each(function () {

        console.log(this.Name)
        //Check if the returned group matches our groupname
        if (this.Name === GroupName)
        {
            IsMemberOfGroup = true;
        }

    });

    if (IsMemberOfGroup)
    {
        //User is member - task will be shown

        console.log("User: " + session.user.Name + " is member of group: " + GroupName)
    }else{

        //User is not member of group - Hide task
        console.log("User: " + session.user.Name + " is NOT member of group: " + GroupName)
        $( ".taskmenu li:contains('Resolve Incident')" ).hide() 
    }
}
