Iterate an array in a webhook response

Rachel Bond

I'm actually posting the answer to this issue because everywhere I searched ALMOST had the answer but nothing I could find matched what fixed my issue.

 

Issue:

When iterating a webhook response, I am having an issue getting values that only match a specific string.

The webhook response I was getting was in JSON and was like what's seen below.

 

"data": [

    {

        "catfood":[]

    },

    {

        "recipe": [

            "ingredient": {

                "type": "gummybears",

                "color": "purple"

            }

        ]

    },

 

    {

        "recipe":[

            "ingredient": {

                "type": "gummybears",

                "color": "blue"

            }

        ]

    },

 

    {

        "recipe":[

            "ingredient": {

                "type": "candycane",

                "color": "redwhite"

            }

        ]

    },

 

    {

        "toothpaste":[]

    },

 

    {

        "recipe":[

            "ingredient":{

                "type": "gummybears",

                "color": "red"

            }

        ]

    }

]

 

My issue was I wanted to pull ONLY the color of gummybears out of this array and below is what I had to do to accomplish this behavior.

 

{{#webhookResponse.body.data}} {{#recipe}} {{#ingredient.match(".*(gummybears).*")}} {{color}} {{/}} {{/}} {{/}}

 

The output this gave me in the end was:

purple blue red

 

I hope this helps someone else in the future, I spent way too many hours on this.
