unable to read the postman data properly using scripted rest api

[Rama26]

below is the data i have in postman

{

"info": [
{
"minimumvalue": "1",
"desiredValue": "2",
"maximumValue": "3",
},
{
"minimumvalue": "4",
"desiredNodes": "5",
"maximumNodes": "6",
}
]

} for getting these values i written the script in scripted rest api but it's not working

   var details = request.body.data;

var user_min2 = details.info[0].minimumvalue;
var user_min3 = details.info[1].minimumvalue;

When i call the endpoint received below error

{"JobsResponse":[{"status":"failure","statusMessage":"{\"error\":{\"message\":\"Cannot read property \\\"0\\\" from undefined\",\"detail\":\"TypeError: Cannot read property \\\"0\\\" from undefined (sys_ws_operation.dc44b4061b38515022078661cd4bcb36.operation_script; line 56)\"},\"status\":\"failure\"}"

Hi @Rama26,

It seems the issue lies in how you're accessing the data in the script. Looking at your code, `request.body.data` suggests that you're expecting the data to be nested under a `data` property, but based on the sample JSON you provided, it's directly under the `request.body`. Here's the corrected script:

var details = request.body;
var user_min2 = details.info[0].minimumvalue;
var user_min3 = details.info[1].minimumvalue;

This script assumes that `request.body` contains the JSON data you provided directly without any nesting under a `data` property. If this is not the case and your data is indeed nested under `data`, then you would access it like this:

var details = request.body.data;
var user_min2 = details.info[0].minimumvalue;
var user_min3 = details.info[1].minimumvalue;

Please hit helpful and accept this as a solution if it solved your problem.
Thank you!

Hi @Rama26 

please try the below code.

var details = request.body.data;

var jsonObject = JSON.parse(details );
var user_min1 = jsonObject.info[0].minimumvalue;
var user_min2 = jsonObject.info[1].minimumvalue;
gs.info(user_min1);
gs.info(user_min2);
