You can use the function:

1ToIndexed($user.getRoles(), String)

If you need use the function above I suggest you to define at least a GetRoles(User $user) function like the following:

1Function GetRoles(User $user) : Indexed String Begin
2   If $user != null Then
3      Return ToIndexed($user.getRoles(), String);
4   Else
5      Return null;
6   End
7End

So all the usages will always refer to the same business object. I will create a feature request to add the function above is added to the next version of the FunctionsExtension so it will be possible to grant compatibility with future Appway releases without affecting the solution you built.

If you need the roles of the current user I suggest you to use instead:

1USERROLES()

which is already implemented in the Appway core.
