Parameters

Name Type Description

record

Name	Type	Description
record	sys.data.Record	This is the record associated to the operation. If default value is for an entity field, this will be the record that contains the field. Keep in mind that in this case, as the default value is usually calculated before creating the record, most fields could be empty. The only case where other fields will be set is when this is a new field or the required flag was added, so when calculating the default value other fields will be already there. If the field is an action parameter, this will be the record where the action is being executed. In this case the record will have values and it will more useful.
parentField	sys.data.Record	This variable is only available when this is a field inside a nested field and it is based on the variable `record` or `action` (the same rules apply then it is an action parameter or an entity field). It is a `sys.data.Record` object with the difference that the root of the record is set to the nested fields containing it. This way it is possible to access fields in the nested group like `parentField.field('fieldA')` instead of `record.field('nested.fieldA')` or `action.field('nested.fieldA')`, which is specially needed when nested fields are multi-valued as you don’t know the index.
action	sys.data.Action	This variable will be available only if the field is an action parameter. It will provide access to other parameters, but keep in mind that they might be empty (except that they have an initial value set).

sys.data.Record

This is the record associated to the operation. If default value is for an entity field, this will be the record that contains the field. Keep in mind that in this case, as the default value is usually calculated before creating the record, most fields could be empty. The only case where other fields will be set is when this is a new field or the required flag was added, so when calculating the default value other fields will be already there.

If the field is an action parameter, this will be the record where the action is being executed. In this case the record will have values and it will more useful.

parentField

sys.data.Record

This variable is only available when this is a field inside a nested field and it is based on the variable record or action (the same rules apply then it is an action parameter or an entity field).

It is a sys.data.Record object with the difference that the root of the record is set to the nested fields containing it. This way it is possible to access fields in the nested group like parentField.field('fieldA') instead of record.field('nested.fieldA') or action.field('nested.fieldA'), which is specially needed when nested fields are multi-valued as you don’t know the index.

action sys.data.Action This variable will be available only if the field is an action parameter. It will provide access to other parameters, but keep in mind that they might be empty (except that they have an initial value set).

Returns

any|any[] - You should return the calculated value in the format used in the Javascript API for the type of the field. If the field is multi-valued, you should return an array.

Samples

 //if current user has an email with 'slingr.io', set this field to 'true'
let flag = false;
const currentUser = sys.context.getCurrentUserRecord();
if (currentUser.field('email').val().indexOf('@slingr.io') != -1) {
  flag = true;
}
return flag;
