filterObj not configured correctly.

[Brian Oster]

My list item has a [ProjectID] field. I want to lookup into another list that also has a [ProjectID] field and filter the lookup on that field but what I have is returning an empty list. Here is my custom JS.

spjs.lookup.init({
    "fieldToConvertToDropdown": [
        "Custom_x0020_Category_x0020_1"
    ],
    "listName": "{D8EC3282-5627-4637-99A5-70844CD0D590}",
    "listBaseUrl": "/development/pmpoc3",
    "optTextFieldInternalName": "Title",
    "pipeDelimitedOptions": "false",
    "optValFieldInternalName": "ID",
    "orderBy": {
        "fin": "Title",
        "ascending": true
    },
    "clearInvalidSelections": true,
    "filterObj": {
        "on": true,
        "folder": "",
        "CAML": null,
        "fin": "Project_x0020_ID",
        "isLookup": true,
        "operator": "Eq",
        "filterVal": "[currentItem:Project_x0020_ID]"
    },
    "dropDownDefaultvalue": "",
    "allowBlank":true,
    "parseFunction": "",
    "addYouOwnValue": {
        "on": false,
        "linkText": "Write your own value"
    },
    "addToExternalList": {
        "on": false,
        "customFunction": null,
        "linkText": "Add new item",
        "saveNewItemText": "Save new item"
    },
    "debug": false,
    "customSort": ""
});

You cannot use the string “[currentItem:Project_x0020_ID]” as filterVal – you must use something like this to get the actual value from the select:

"filterVal": jQuery("#dffs_Project_x0020_ID option:selected").val()
