Need suggestion on using For & foreach loop

[shaik_irfan]

Hi,

I am trying to get some data from 3rd party system and parsing that data to get the id of users.

var str = responseBody;
var parser = new JSONParser();
var parsedData = parser.parse(str).members; // LIST of users from 3rd users


arrayList = [shaik.irfan, robert.ramirez, anthony.gonzalvez];


var finalObj = [];
for(var k=0; k<arrayList.length; k++)
	{
	parsedData.forEach(function(element) {
		if(element.name === arrayList[k]) {
			finalObj.push(element.id);
		}
	});
}

what i am doing is from arrayList i am searching with each user id from the parsedData if i get any user i am adding it into finalObj array.

Now i want to optmize the code to not use for loop inside forEach loop again since i am getting a warning message "Don't make functions within a loop" i want to seperate above for loops

Hi Shaik,

Can you try this?

your previous code will remain the same only below part I have updated

this should work for multiple values;

the below code will run only for 1 index since only 1 value will be found;

you can try to run for multiple values by using below arrayList value

here shaik.irfan and anthoy.ramirez will be the intersection values and id corresponding to both would be printed

var arrayList = ["shaik.irfan", "anthoy.ramirez", "anthony.gonzalvez"]; 

var intersectArray = arrayUtil.intersect(members, arrayList);

var indexArray = [];

for(var i=0;i<parsedData.length;i++){

var value = parsedData[i].name;

var arrayUtil = new ArrayUtil();

if(arrayUtil.contains(intersectArray,value))
{
indexArray.push(value);
}
}

for(var j=0;j<indexArray.length;j++){
gs.info(parsedData[j].id);
}

Mark Correct if this solves your issue and also mark Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
Thanks
