I can’t seem to change anything.

I want to process my result set and then create my own JSON response. No matter what I do it doesn’t seem to affect the results.

For instance;

//\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* Post-processing script on the stored procedure \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*

var\_dump(event.response); // outputs to file in storage/log of dreamfactory install directory

var lodash = require(“lodash.min.js”);

return [“stuff”];

This doesn’t return “stuff” just the list of original records it is supposed to send. How do I intercept the result and then process it and return the new JSON.

Thanks

OK - I had done a post with a get response. So by changing it to post process the POST, I am finally seeing the records come back. Now the weird part. If I put : return -99 in my script it will return it. However, if I try to return anything else, is seems to bypass my logic and always return the original result.

Anyone have an example of taking a response, perform logic with it, and send on a new JSON?

Help.

the sample video says: event.response.content.resource

Which is it?

Hi @jimijon,

if envent script use:

```auto
var myValue = "teste";
\\event.response.content.[your param] = [your value] include value in your response
event.response.content.myValue = myValue;
event.response.content_changed = true; \\ save changed

```

or service script use only  
`return myValue`

Not really. I am trying to loop through the response and nothing seems to work:

```
lodash._.each (event.response.content.resource, function( record ) {
    storeId == 101 ;
    return false;
});
lodash._.each (event.response.content, function( record ) {
    storeId == 102 ;
    return false;
});
lodash._.each (event.response.record, function( record ) {
    storeId == 103 ;
    return false;
});
lodash._.each (event.response.resource, function( record ) {
    storeId == 1034;
    return false;
});
lodash._.each (event.response.content.record, function( record ) {
    storeId == 103 ;
    return false;
});

```

None of the above set the storeId.

this code is it correct syntax, but   
maybe your problem the syntax in internal block  
“==” It is a comparison that returns a boolean, not an assignment for that you should use only one equal. And I was not accessing the record object.

ex:

```auto
lodash._.each (event.response.content.resource, function( record ) {
    record.storeId = 101;
});

```

I’m sorry, for my english.  
I’m using translate of google 😂
