How to check for duplicates in an Asset Schema object through post-functions

Crystal Rouse_ktsija

When saving a custom field's data to the asset schema object, I need to check to make sure it does not already exist.  The attribute is set to be unique.  If the user tries to enter information already existing, there are no error messages returned.  

Is there a way to check for the record in the asset schema as a validator or some other post function before writing the information to the asset schema object?

Any help appreciated!

Hi @Crystal Rouse

You will have to use a scripting plugin such as scriptrunner/powerscripts/JMWE to access the objects in your Data Center instance.  I believe there is an AQL you can run with the scripts that should check if an object with the same attribute already exists.
