How to reference a field in a responseMap object

[panicdrone]

Hi everyone,

This is probably baby knowledge, but I can't find any examples and I've tried 40 different variations without a win:

I've got destinations that return JSON objects which I store in the responseMap like this:

responseMap.put('someMessage', response.getMessage())

The object is like this (more or less)

{
    "id": 12345,
    "success": true
}

I need to be able to check the success status in a subsequent destination to determine whether to continue processing

How do I check the "success" field value?

Thanks!

You do not need to put stuff in the response map, it is already there.

For example assuming your first destination number 1, the value of the succes field name in the JSON can be retrevied downstream like:

JSON.parse($('d1').getMessage()).success

Excellent, thank you! This is a simplified version of what I did: var pfResp = JSON.parse(responseMap.get('someMapObjectName')).s uccess

The source for my channel can receive multiple message types and based on that one of several different destinations hits an API with that message. The responses are identical so that's why I put the response into the responseMap. I never know which destination is going to be hit, but I know one will be. Thanks again

Not sure I undestand that. You are duplicating when you don't need to. You know what destination it hit because you can check that at any time.

That's why it says "Mirth Newb" next to my name. Still stuff I'm learning. How do I check all possible responses and find out which one was "SENT" ?

[pacmano]

Just iterate through the destinations and check which one(s) were SENT.

Also, if you know the logic for when a destination should run or not when you receive the message, you should be using destination set filtering anyway.
