Any way to get the name of a Xaas item inside itself as argument ?

[JeanChristopheD]

Hi team,

I'm currently working with vRealize Automation 7.4.0 and vRealize Orchestrator 7.4.0 and I didn't find any way to get access to the name of the Xaas inside itself.

My use case is about having default values for my form computed with an action that has as input the name of the Xaas. Final goal is to have all the content of the Xaas fully generic and only one key, the Xaas name for its live customization.

For now I only get that working using a dedicated hidden text area inside the form but it has to be updated manually.

I can see a lot of data in the field values about the requester, its manager and so on but nothing to fuel my purpose.

Is there any "hidden" property or "magic" action that could match my objective ?

Thanks a lot for your help and ideas !

If I am understanding you correctly...  You could add a specific hidden value to the XaaS blueprint that has the name and can reference that value

Hi,

I currently use an hardcoded hidden value that duplicates the name of the Xaas blueprint as I cannot find a way to access it inside the form.

My point is to find a way to get rid of that hardcoded value and rely directly on the Xaas name.

Hope this would be clearer 🙂
