Show contenttype column with vLookup

[Andreas Blüher]

Hello Alexander,

I’m trying to show the content type column for tasks loaded using vLookup. As shown on the first screenshot we get an error message. On the 2nd screenshot you can see the configuration.

If I use a wrong field name the error message is different, so I’m wondering if ContentType is a special column or if I’m doing something wrong.

Thank you very much!
Andreas

It doesn’t look like the content type name is accessible directly, but you can get it by using a custom function. Set up the vLookup field as the attached image, and add this to the custom js:

function getContentTypeName(val,item){
   return item.get_contentType().get_name();
}
