lookupObject.getValue is not a function

I have a function that retrieves the value of a lookup Object.

var lookupObject = formContext.getAttribute("attributename");
var selectedRecord = lookupObject.getValue();

It's throwing the error that lookupObject.getValue() is not a function.

Solution

  • the reason is that formContext.getAttribute("attributename") is not returning an Object.

    It is not returning an Object because the field attributename is not present inside the model-driven app form where you attached the script.
