The button can be a primary screen where you can select the country. The screen script for the first button lets you select the available countries.
| Code Block |
|---|
BA_use "poweraction"; setActionTitle("Country"); string[] countries = {"USA", "Canada", "The Netherlands"}; BA_createSelectList("Country", countries, "", false, true, "Select the country where you are based"); BA_setExecuteButtonText("Next"); |
| Info |

By declaring the package (line 1) the script can now use the shortened version of the routine names. So instead of using BA_setActionTitle("Country") we can simply write setActionTitle("Country"). |
In the action script of the button we need to get the value from the screen and save it into an auxiliary value:
| Code Block |
|---|
use "poweraction"; string country = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "Country"); BA_setBlitzAttribute("country", country); |
After a user selects a country, they should be selecting a further filtering parameter – department. In this case, the screen script should look like this:
| Code Block |
|---|
BA_use "poweraction"; setActionTitle("Department"); string[] departments = {"HR", "Sales", "IT"}; BA_createSelectList("Department", departments , "" ,false, true, "Select the department that best applies for your request"); BA_setExecuteButtonText("Next"); |
In the action script of the first step, we need to get the value from the screen and save it into an auxiliary value:
| Code Block |
|---|
use "poweraction"; string department = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "Department"); BA_setBlitzAttribute("department", department); |
The last screen provides a list of users that are in the selected country and work in the selected department.
Thus, the select script will consider the values set in the previous screens.
| Code Block |
|---|
BA_use "poweraction"; setActionTitle("User"); string country = BA_getBlitzAttribute("country"); string office = BA_getBlitzAttribute("department"); string[] users; string[] usersInDepartment = usersInGroups(department); for (string user in usersInDepartment) { if (getUserProperty(user, "country") == country) { users = addElement(users, user); } } BA_createSelectList("User", users, "", false, true, "Select the person to help you"); |
In the action script, we only set the selected value as the assignee:
| Code Block |
|---|
use "poweraction"; string user = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "User"); assignee = user; |
...
After the last screen executes, the assignee of the current issue will be set to the value selected in the User field - "josh" in this case.
