correct syntax for filters on Read Data functions?

stikkimorey 21 Aug, 2018

Hi

I am trying to filter results in a Data Read function using:

model.field/<:{data:field}

I also tried

model.field:/<{data:field}

But these are not working for me. What is the correct way to do it in Chronoconnectivity?

Many thanks

Answer

Hi,

use /- in case no data is sent . otherwise correct syntax is your first one

if for example model.id/<:1 gives you a result by filtering correctly then check if your field {data:field} is containing the correct value or is at the right place.

model.field/<:{data:field}/-

Ensure also that your data inputs are into a form ( chronoform or chronoconnectivity)

Thanks for that very clear answer.

There seemed to be a problem getting the {data:field} values, not sure why, but anyway I specified them from the read data function using :

{var:read_function_name.Model.field}

and now all good

Hi Stikkimorey,

Maybe worth precising that:
- if you want to get data from a form then use {data:field} or {data:Model.field}
- if you want to get data from a read data function then use {var:read_function_name.Model.field}
