Array List Contains - always returns false

Hi,

I am creating an Array list and populating it from an API call.

I use the Get Array List and output the values to verify it’s populated; however, when I use Array List Contains to check for a matching value, I get false even though it shows in the Get Array List.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

You search for a number…

Try StoreSN.contains(“number here”)

If this works just pass the value.toString()
StoreSN.contains(valueToCheck.toString)

Thanks for your reply. That still does not return a ‘true’.

let’s forget arraylist.contain…

use .where on your arraylist:
get_stored_SN-list.where('yourFieldHere', '==', 'yourValueHere').count()

If this returns 0 is false , if >=1 then true

I hope it works

**Don’t forget to convert values (toNumber() or toString()) if needed
