How to get field names from schema from API data

Wappler General How To
#1

I am pulling data from an API. I would like to be able to put the field names from the returned data to the browser. Here is my situation, I use a 3rd party API that deals with PDFs. I’m trying to pull the schema names so that I can compare and search which PDFs have the correct schema definitions. I can get the data no problem but I need the name from the schema… Not sure if I need a formatter somehow, or if I am going to have to wield some fancy javascript to get these values. @pbj

I have about 50 pdfs stored at this api, I want to create a page where I can search the returned api data to see if that field is there or not.

These are property names, on a Repeat step you can access it by $name, e.g.:

Repeat `api.data.properties`:
    Set Value property_name = `{{$name}}`

You can also access it like so:

Set Value property_name = "Ankle AP"
Set Value stuff = {{api.data.properties[property_name]}}

In theory you could something like this, but not sure if Wappler understands (= might have a bug):

Set Value stuff = {{api.data.properties["Ankle AP"]}}
