🔍 Select

The Select action allows you to create a new array by transforming items or values from an existing JSON array or object. You can map specific fields or properties to new variable names.

Configuration​

  • Source Array: Select the array or column containing the JSON objects to transform.
  • Map Name: Enter the variable name(s) for the mapped properties. You can add multiple mappings by clicking the plus (+) button.
  • Use the delete (x) button to remove unwanted mappings.

Features​

  • Transforms JSON arrays into new arrays with custom field mappings.
  • Supports multiple mappings for complex data reshaping.
  • Allows renaming of JSON properties for clarity or Pageflows needs.
  • Simplifies data manipulation in Pageflows.

Use Cases​

  • Extract specific fields from JSON responses for further processing.
  • Rename fields to match Pageflows variable conventions.
  • Create simplified arrays for display or export.
  • Prepare data for integration with other systems.

Notes​

  • Ensure the Source Array contains valid JSON objects.
  • Map all required fields to variable names carefully.
  • Use multiple mappings for comprehensive transformations.

Tip: Combine Select with Filter array or Parse JSON to build powerful data transformation pipelines.
