Grab information from a concat

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 20
Hi All, 
 
I want to get specific information from this line that I have concatted from a variable. 
 
I want to get the information that is highlighted in this compose. 
 
I have tried to split it but it doesn't seem to work.
 
Any assistance would be appreciated 
 
 
[{"goods_id":"1305503d1b9252100a81848cd34bcba5","goods_description":"Bathroom Accessories Mirrors","package_marks":"ADDR"},{"goods_id":"6b05503d1b9252100a81848cd34bcbbf","goods_description":"Bathroom Accessories Mirrors","package_marks":"ADDR"}]
 
 
Thank you
Keavie

    You can use "Parse JSON" action and use belowed code in schema
     
    {
        "type": "array",
        "items": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "goods_id": {
                    "type": "string"
                },
                "goods_description": {
                    "type": "string"
                },
                "package_marks": {
                    "type": "string"
                }
            }
        }
    }
    

    After this You will be able to use goods_id property in next steps, for example select action :)

    Are You sure, You used my shema? In Your screen i can see that You used „Object” property, in my schema i used „Array”. Please check that again :)

    I did try this and it only pulled through the first enter from the JSON. I need to get all the goods ID's as we can have up to 30 in this lookup.
     
    I am doing a HTTP GET to get the Goods ID therefore when trying to Parse JSON it is failing when trying to do it as an Array.

    So try in different way :) 
     
    1. copy body outputs of your http request from your previous tests
    2. go to edit flow 
    3. in parse json click generate from sample
    4. paste in new window body of http request
    5. click generate
    6. test it again
