When I get a List/Record field value in Freemarker, how do I get the ID value instead of the text name label?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In Freemarker, to get the ID value of a List/Record field instead of the text name label, you can use the

record.getValue

method instead of

record.getText

. Here's an example of how you can do it:

code
var recordId = record.getValue({
    fieldId: 'yourFieldId'
});

In this example,

yourFieldId

is the ID of the field you want to get the value from. This will return the internal ID of the selected option in the List/Record field, not the text label. Remember,

record.getValue

returns the internal ID of the field, while

record.getText

returns the display text of the field. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
