So how would one go about accessing that and displaying certain information into the description field? I guess I am not sure how to go about this through coding it from the record producers script field.

Thanks

It's an JSON.stringified array of objects.

So say your multirow variable set had the following variables;

Firstname, Lastname, Email

You're value of current.variables.people could be something like;

[{\"firstname\":\"Jace\",\"lastname\":\"Benson\",\"email\":\"jace@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Abdul\",\"lastname\":\"Aaron\",\"email\":\"abdul@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Brandon\",\"lastname\":\"Brennan\",\"email\":\"brandon@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Charlie\",\"lastname\":\"Carpenter\",\"email\":\"charlie@example.com\"}]

However if you just do JSON.parse(current.variables.people) you'll get this;

[
    {
        "firstname": "Jace",
        "lastname": "Benson",
        "email":"jace@example.com"
    },
    {
        "firstname": "Abdul",
        "lastname": "Aaron",
        "email":"abdul@example.com"
    },
    {
        "firstname": "Brandon",
        "lastname": "Brennan",
        "email":"brandon@example.com"
    },
    {
        "firstname": "Charlie",
        "lastname": "Carpenter",
        "email":"charlie@example.com"
    },
]

Once you have that you can do a forEach, map, or for loop to go over it;

// the below is for testing in the browsers console
var current = {
  variables: {
    people: "[{\"firstname\":\"Jace\",\"lastname\":\"Benson\",\"email\":\"jace@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Abdul\",\"lastname\":\"Aaron\",\"email\":\"abdul@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Brandon\",\"lastname\":\"Brennan\",\"email\":\"brandon@example.com\"},{\"firstname\":\"Charlie\",\"lastname\":\"Carpenter\",\"email\":\"charlie@example.com\"}]"
  }
}
// the above is for testing in the browsers console
// you're current.variables.multirowvariablename will have similiar data
var people = JSON.parse(current.variables.people);// this is now the nice array
for(var x = 0;x<people.length;x++){
  var message = "Person at position " + x + " is ";
  message += people[x].firstname + " " + people[x].lastname;
  console.log(message); 
}
/**
Output is;
Person at position 0 is Jace Benson debugger eval code:13:3
Person at position 1 is Abdul Aaron debugger eval code:13:3
Person at position 2 is Brandon Brennan debugger eval code:13:3
Person at position 3 is Charlie Carpenter
**/

Thanks jace, I have yet to implement this but I will give it a try soon and let you know how it goes. I appreciate the help

Hi Abdul,

I am working on the same functionality. Were you able to get this working?

Thanks!

Holly, I'm not sure if my reply makes sense, however if it does not I'd also open a new thread on this so you can ask the particulars about what it is specifically you're doing that isn't working.
