In my afterSubmit script, I'm trying to get the Item Name, but it's returning undefined. Am I missing something?

let salesOrder = context.newRecord;

let itemName = salesOrder.getSublistValue({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'item_display',
    line: 0
}); // Returns Undefined

You should be able to use

getSublistText()

on the

item

field to get the item name.

let itemName = salesOrder.getSublistText({
    sublistId: 'item',
    fieldId: 'item',
    line: 0
});

double check if the fieldId is correct

@Mike Robbins when I tried .getSublistText I got an error

"Invalid API usage. You must use getSublistValue to return the value set with setSublistValue"

Which didn't feel right, as I'm not setting any values in the sublist via script. But that's the error I. was getting

You probably need to get the order ID from context.newRecord, then do an explicit record.load.

@ericbirdsall Yeah, that’s going to happen. If you’re using

.setSublistValue

on that field before calling

getSublistText

, you’ll get that message. Might be time for a call to

search.lookupFields

or

search.create

if you need to get the item name for all lines.

@Mike Robbins Thanks for checking on that for me. I see that I do have a .setSublistValue in another function of my afterSubmit. So I'll find a way around this now
