Sort array results in descending order

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Matthew5

Hi all, 

I'd really appreciate some help, I've created a flow which stores an array variable of key words and the count of the number of times they occur. 

I'm now trying to sort this array in descending order however I'm struggling with the expression to do this, I'd really appreciate some help in how I can do this?

Thank you,

    Hi @Matthew5 

     

    Assume i have an array like below

    Now will use below expression in compose action to sort the array in descending based on Count property

    Expression used: 

    reverse(sort(variables('arr1'),'Count'))
     
    This expression uses sort function to sort array variable by Count property in ascending order and then use reverse function to reverse it.
     
    Thanks & Regards,
