json.set

json.set() Function

• Introduced in version 1.3b49

Sets the value in at the specified index in a JSON Array or for the specified key in a JSON Object. You can use an empty string ("") to represent a new JSON Array or JSON Object.

Usage

json.set(jarr, index, value)

json.set(jarr, index, value, ..., ...)

json.set(jobj, key, value)

json.set(jobj, key, value, ..., ...)

Parameters

• jarr - The JSON Array that has an index's value set.
• index - The numeric index which has its value set.
• jobj - The JSON Object that has a key's value set.
• key - The named key which has its value set.
• value - The content that is set to the index or key.

Note: The index and value parameters or key and value parameters can be repeated in pairs.

Example

  [json.set("{}", "a", 5)]
  [json.set("", "a", 5, "b", 8)]
  [json.set(json.fromList("1,3"), 0, 8)]

Returns

 {"a":5}
 {"a":5, "b":8}
 [8, 3]

To save the new value in the JSON Array or JSON Object so that you can reference it later in a macro, you must set the array equal to the result of json.set().

   [myArray = json.append("", 1, 2, 3)]
   [myArray = json.set(myArray, 0, 5)]
   [myArray]

Returns

  [1,2,3] 
  [5,2,3] 

[5,2,3]
