How to Use the REST API from VBS Redwood seeded page in field expression

Hi All,

I have a requirement to display a default value in a field. The value is returned from a REST API and stored in a page variable. I need to return this variable inside the field’s value expression function.

I was able to achieve this using an action chain, but I am currently unable to retrieve the value through the field expression function.

Can you please help?

/* eslint-disable dot-notation */define([], () => {  'use strict';
  async function getDocumentRecordsDocumentRecordsDFFPerDiemAmount(context) {    const { $fields, $and, $co, $variables} = context;

    try {      // Step 1: Get UserTableId for TRIP_ABOVE_14_DAYS (Column A)      const resp1 = await Actions.callRest(context, {        endpoint: 'site_hcm_extension:UDT_Table_Names_Trip_Above_14/UDT_Above_14_ID',        requestTransformOptions: {          filter: {            op: '$and',            criteria: [              { op: '$co', attribute: 'UserTableName', value: 'TRIP_ABOVE_14_DAYS' },              { op: '$co', attribute: 'UserColumnName', value: 'A' }            ]          }        }      });

Howdy, Stranger!
