Hey everyone,I’m trying to send out an email using automations, but I can’t figure out how to do it correctly….I have a USERS table with USER_EMAIL along with DAYS_TENURE (how long they’ve been signed up)I have a PROGRAMMING table with a DAY_ID column, and a few additional columns with relevant data. For each user, I want to find their DAYS_TENURE value, then find the records in the PROGRAMMING table with the matching value in the DAY_ID column, and email them the 3 additional columns from the PROGRAMMING table.
I think I need to use scripting to do this, but I’m running into issues. I’m more of a SQL and python person, so there’s something I’m missing for javascript…
In my code, I’m trying to do a nested for loop…the outer loop loops through each unique DAY_ID from the PROGRAMMING table, and the inner for loop adds the users from the USER table to a javascript object if their DAYS_TENURE matches the DAY_ID.
For the sake of simplicity, let’s say I have DAY_ID values of 1, 2….and for DAYS_TENURE I have values of 1,2,3,4,5. My code is…
let tableProg = base.getTable('PROGRAMMING');
let queryProg = await tableProg.selectRecordsAsync();
let tableUser = base.getTable('USER');
let queryUser = await tableUser.selectRecordsAsync();
let daysUnique = [...new Set(queryProg.records.map(days => days.getCellValue('DAY_ID')))];
let jsObject = []
daysUnique.forEach(day => {
queryUser.records.map(record => {
if (day = record.getCellValue('TENURE_DAY')) {
jsObject.push({
dayNum: day
,name: record.getCellValue('USER_EMAIL')
,tenure: record.getCellValue('TENURE_DAY')
});
}
})
});
console.log(jsObject)
For the outer loop…
daysUnique.forEach(day => {
I expect day to have the value for each unique DAY_ID (1,2). When I run the inner loop, I would expect this value to carry through so I can do this if statement…
if (day = record.getCellValue('TENURE_DAY')) {
However, it seems that when I run this code, day is no longer keeps the value of DAY_ID. It somehow returns the value of DAYS_TENURE from the inner loop (1,2,3,4,5).
I have no idea how it happens, but when I console.log the results, the javascript object dayNum field…
dayNum: day
has values of 1,2,3,4,5……not just 1,2.
I know that’s a lot, but hopefully it makes sense. Any ideas?
