Parser

The Parser node can be used to extract values from a Dictionary or Table. These extracted ("parsed") values can be used as variables in subsequent nodes.

Parsing from Dictionary

Example input:

{
    "id": 1,
    "name": "Leanne Graham",
    "address": {
        "street": "Kulas Light"
    },
    "hobbies": [
        "Reading",
        "Swimming"
    ]
}

Example paths and parsed values:

• id: 1
• name: Leanne Graham
• address.street: Kulas Light
• hobbies.[1]: Swimming

Parsing from Table

Parsing from a Table will always require the first part of a path to be an index identifier:

• [i,j], where i is the index of the row and j is the index of the column
• [i], where i is the index of the row and 0 is assumed for the index of the column

Example input for a one-column table aka. one-dimensional array aka. list:

[
    {
        "id": 1,
        "name": "Leanne Graham",
        "address": {
            "street": "Kulas Light"
        }
    },
    {
        "id": 2,
        "name": "Ervin Howell",
        "address": {
            "street": "Victor Plains"
        }
    }
]

Example paths and parsed values:

• [0].id: 1
• [0].name: Leanne Graham
• [0].address.street: Kulas Light
• [1].name: Ervin Howell

Example input for a two-column table aka. two-dimensional array:

[
    [
        "Timothy",
        "Josh"
    ],
    [
        "Sarina",
        "Jarred"
    ]
]

Example paths and parsed values:

• [0,0]: Timothy
• [0,1]: Josh
