title: How to get the field values using the Modified javascript step in pentaho?
body: <p>I'm trying to get the field values and field meta data ie., field properties,</p>
  <p>Using the following script I'm able to find the field type and field properties. Now im trying to check if there is any null value in the a particular field, so that I can replace the field value with the default values based on the field type.</p>
  <p>How can I read the field values without using the input fields ie.,hard coding (ie., to use some inbuilt functions as of how we get the meta data)<a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/6kFHl.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">following is the snip of code that i used to get the field properties </a></p>
