Using Authority.ftl

[malikaasen]

I am trying to use authority.ftl to select a group that is going to be used in an action for editing group roles. How do i write the java action so that there are no erros? Tried this

protected void addParameterDefinitions(List<ParameterDefinition> list) {
    list.add(new ParameterDefinitionImpl(X, DataTypeDefinition.TEXT, true,getParamDisplayLabel(X)));

}

But i got the error that the types were different, think it was field.endpointtype. What is this, and how do i get it in the addParameterDefinitions, what type does the authority.ftl return, a string? I assume that you can use AuthorityService afterwards to get the group name or something similar.

Thanks in advance for the help.

My bad... I left the tab open when I went to have lunch, and then sent the answer without checking if someone had answered

Weirdly enough, i still get the error, this is how it looks like after i have picked a group 

and this is the failure i get, there are no errors in the .log files

I made a class for the action, added the bean, and wrote the above in the add-doclib-action xml file, is there something that i may perhaps have forgotten?

Here is the config for the button that creates the form
