How Do I Remove an Item From an Server Action Object Array List?

[Antony]

I've read the tutorials from @teodor and @Hyperbytes on this but I still can't work out what to do...

And I need to specify the index... but there is nothing to choose in the data picker from my Set index step.

Am I missing a step here?

Server Connect Array Remove problem

There is a limitation when using Objects inside the array. IndexOf, Contains or Remove don’t work fine with objects as value. Here an example in plain JavaScript with indexOf: const array1 = []; const array2 = []; array1.push(1); array2.push({n:1}); console.log(array1.indexOf(1)); // returns 0 console.log(array2.indexOf({n:1}); // returns -1 Array1 it looks up the value 1 and finds it at index 0. The second array it looks for the object {n:1} but can’t find it, this is because the objects a…
