This will populate a <u_location> field string based on the <location> field on the user's record without having to use GlideAjax. Go to the <u_location> dictionary and place this snippet in the Default Value field.

Invalid file type, u_installation_id from the script is not documented, and this readme does not describe much at all

Sorry, I looked at another readme from someone else and thought I followed what they did. I'll add more detail.

As for the filetype, I followed the contribution file but for a newb like me, it doesn't provide the level of detail I need. I simply added a file as it states and typed away.

As for the field. I'm going to add in the Readme this applies to a reference field that is added. "u_installation" being the name of my particular field. The <> was an attempt to an example.

This call type would not be suitable in a flow action. Additionally, you should use getUniqueValue() to get the sys_id string

It works flawlessly on our production instance as is. I did mean to add this to Dynamic Filter though, not Flow Action.
