Within a view:

const hasRole = (this.getUser().attributes.rolesIds || []).includes(targetRoleId);

Within any other class, need to inject the user: https://docs.espocrm.com/development...ncy-injection/

Hi Yuri,

I'm trying to do this too. When I create a custom view for my entity I find that this.getUser().attributes.rolesIds is undefined and when I console log it I get the attributes object (correct username, email etc) but it doesn't contain the roleIds property:

"recordViews": {
    "detail": "custom:views/record/camera-detail"
},

....................

define('custom:views/record/camera-detail', ['views/record/detail'], function (Dep) {
    return Dep.extend({
  
        setup: function () {
            Dep.prototype.setup.call(this);
            console.log(`camera detail custom view `,this);
            // const hasRole = (this.getUser().attributes.rolesIds || []).includes(targetRoleId);
            console.log('role = ',this.getUser().attributes.rolesIds); // <-- undefined
        },

    });
});

My user definitely has a role:



Am I doing this wrong?

Indeed, roles are not loaded for the current user. Maybe consider using a custom field instead? It can be enum, multi-enum or link. Cannot be link-multiple as they are not loaded there.
