1001fx - NoCode functionsInstall

Overview

This node provides a "Filter an Array by an Operator" operation for the "array" resource. It allows you to filter an array of objects based on a specified field, operator, and criteria. This is useful in scenarios where you need to extract only those items from a dataset that match certain conditions, such as filtering orders above a certain value, selecting users with a specific status, or extracting records within a date range.

Practical examples:

• Filtering a list of products to include only those with a price greater than $100.
• Selecting users whose email addresses match a specific domain (with optional case sensitivity).
• Extracting log entries where the severity equals "error".

Properties

Output

The output is a JSON array containing only those items from the input "Data" array that match the specified filter condition. Each output item retains its original structure.

Example output:

[
  {
    "field1": "value1",
    "field2": 123
  },
  {
    "field1": "value2",
    "field2": 456
  }
]

• If no items match, the output will be an empty array.
• No binary data is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

• External Service: Requires access to the 1001fx API.
• API Key: You must configure the 1001fxApi credential in n8n.
• Environment: Ensure your n8n instance can reach https://api.1001fx.com/.

Troubleshooting

• Common Issues:

  • Invalid API Key: If the API key is missing or incorrect, authentication errors will occur. Make sure the 1001fxApi credential is set up correctly.
  • Incorrect Field Name: If the "Query field" does not exist in the data, no items will match, resulting in an empty output.
  • Type Mismatch: If "Criteria" is a string but the field is numeric (or vice versa), the filter may not work as expected.
  • Case Sensitivity: If "Ignore case sensitivity" is not enabled, string comparisons are case-sensitive, which may lead to unexpected results.

• Error Messages:

  • Errors from the API are returned in the output under an error property. For example:

    { "error": "Invalid operator" }
    

    To resolve, check that all properties are set correctly and the operator is valid.
