Unable to retrieve JSON value by specifying the key

0

Hey everyone, I'm sending a JSON Object to my Lambda function (Node.js), I basically want to get a few values from the JSON and convert them into a specific format and then send those values back in the response. I am able to read the values using JSON.parse() but for some reason I cannot access a particular value by specifying the key. In the screenshot you can see that I am typing in myObj1.blueprint but I get an error saying that it is undefined. Any help would be appreciated! Parsed JSON Object Trying to access the value by dot notation Undefined Error

Parse the JSON body explicitly:

const event = JSON.parse(event); 

Access properties using dot notation:

const blueprint = event.blueprint;

A few things to check:

  • Make sure the JSON string is valid and parses correctly
  • Check that the property name is spelled correctly
  • Print out the parsed object to verify it has the expected structure
  • Parsing the JSON turns it into a Javascript object that you can then access properties from using dot notation or brackets. This allows you to work with the data rather than just a string.

  • Thanks for the answer, however I am still not able to do what I want. I'm sending a JSON Object within the JSON that is sent to the Lambda Function from Make.com. The easiest way for me to send the data is by setting body type to Application/x-www-form-urlencoded format and then set fields to send the required data. I can receive the data in the Lambda function this way too but again how do I read it if I send the data this way.

Hi, do both dot notation myObj1.blueprint and bracket notation fail? Have you tried further debugging your json key/value pairs with a loop, for example something like

for var keyval in myObj1 {
  if(myObj1.hasOwnProperty(keyval)) {
    console.log('key-val pair', keyval, myObj1[keyval]);
  }
}
