skip to Main Content

I can’t seem to extract the nested data I’m getting from a Shopify orders/create webhook and write it to a spreadsheet.

I was able to go down one level by using shift() like this var lineItems = myData.line_items.shift(); but the next level comes back as [Ljava.lang.Object;@1746c8f9

Though the first level of the object does come back readable.

Here is my code:

function doPost(e) {

  var myData = JSON.parse(e.postData.contents);

  var lineItems = myData.line_items.shift();
  var prop = lineItems.properties;

  var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();

  sheet.appendRow([lineItems,prop]); 
}

Here is how Shopify documentation says the webhook response will be: (I took out the irrelevant data to shorten)

I need to extract the line_items data and specifically the properties object (though in this example it is blank thats because it reflects custom properties entered by user)

  1. Chosen as BEST ANSWER

    I was able to figure how to access the properties. If someone has a better way please answer too.

    Also please see full code in this question: Quicken google apps script so I can return success response within Shopify 5 second limit

      var data = JSON.parse(e.postData.contents);
     
      var l = data.line_items.length; 
     
      for (var i=0;i<l;i++){
      var prop = data.line_items[i].properties;
    
      var pdf = prop.find(function(x) {if(x.name == "_pdf") return x});
      if (!pdf){pdf = "Prop not found";}else{pdf = pdf.value};
    

  2. Convert prop to a string using whatever method you prefer.

    sheet.appendRow([lineItems,JSON.stringify(prop)]);
    

    You may also want to stringify lineItems.
