How to get non-ID fields in List Button?
Hi everyone,
I'm using a list button and calling a method from an external system (all good). However I need to do some validation first before I call the actual method. I'm using GETRECORDSID to get the IDs of the selected items. So I also need to get a field of those selected records to be used for the validation. How can I achieve it? Below's my code:
Appreciate your help. Thanks!

{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/25.0/connection.js")}
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("/soap/ajax/25.0/apex.js")}
{!REQUIRESCRIPT("//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.1/jquery.min.js")}
setTimeout(function(){
try{
var selected = {!GETRECORDIDS( $ObjectType.my_custom_object__c)};
for(i=0; i<selected.length; i++){
if({!selected[i].my_custom_field__c} == true){ //this is where I get the error. I cannot access the custom field.
alert('Error here = ' + selected[i] '. Click OK to continue');
}
else{
result = sforce.apex.execute('external_class','external_method',{purchaseId:selected[i]});
}
}
}
catch(error){
$('#overlayBackground').remove();
$('#overlayOverlay').remove();
alert('An error ocurred');
}
},300);
If there's no other way around, my last resort would be to use VF page.Appreciate your help. Thanks!
Something like below :
var recordsArray = sforce.connection.query("SELECT Id, Name FROM my_custom_object__c WHERE Id IN: <Ids List>"); records = recordsArray.getArray("records"); var recordName = records[0].Name;
