Discuss ServiceNow CAD Exam Topic 2 Question 58

Which one of the following is true for this script fragment?

g_user.hasRole(,x_my_app_user');

AThe method returns true if the currently logged in user has the x_my_app_user role or the admin role

BThe method returns false only if the currently logged in user has the x_my_app_user role

CThere is no g_user.hasRole() method

DThe method returns true only if the currently logged in user has the x_my_app_user role

Suggested Answer: A

The statement that is true for this script fragment is that the method returns true if the currently logged in user has the x_my_app_user role or the admin role. The g_user.hasRole() method is a client-side method that checks whether the current user has a specified role or set of roles. If no role is specified, it returns true if the user has any role. If one or more roles are specified, it returns true if the user has any one of the specified roles. However, this method always returns true if the user has the admin role, regardless of the role parameter. Therefore, in this case, the method returns true if the user has either the x_my_app_user role or the admin role. Reference:User Object Cheat Sheet,Checking user permissions

Definitely not B, that sounds off.

Fletcher 11 months ago

I thought it only checks for specific roles, so D makes sense.

Georgiann 11 months ago

Wait, is there really no g_user.hasRole() method?

Lizbeth 12 months ago

Nah, I’m pretty sure it’s option D.

Dan 12 months ago

I think option A is correct.

Avery 1 year ago

I believe the method returns true only for the specified role, so I’m leaning towards option D, but I could be wrong.

I’m a bit confused about the method itself. I don’t recall if g_user.hasRole() is a valid method or not.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it was about checking multiple roles. Could it be option A?

Tanesha 1 year ago

I think the method checks if the user has a specific role, but I'm not sure if it only returns true for that role or if it includes admin as well.

Pete 1 year ago

Ah, I see. The key here is to determine whether the method returns true if the user has the `x_my_app_user` role, or if it also considers the admin role. I'll need to think this through carefully.

Carli 1 year ago

This seems straightforward enough. I think I have a good grasp of how the `g_user.hasRole()` method works, so I'll try to apply that knowledge to this question.

Doretha 1 year ago

Okay, let's see. The question is asking about the behavior of this specific script fragment, so I'll need to focus on understanding the method call and the possible return values.

Kenneth 1 year ago

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully read through the options and think about the behavior of the `g_user.hasRole()` method.

Terry 1 year ago

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the options. I'll need to make sure I fully understand what each one is saying before selecting an answer.

Hershel 1 year ago

Okay, I've got this. The initial activity attributes include things like the activity name, dependencies, and assumptions. I'm pretty confident that's the right answer.

Okay, let's think this through. The fault attack is about forcing errors from the software/OS interfaces, so I'm guessing we're looking for a failure that's related to that, like a crash or incorrect behavior.
