I'm working with a 3rd party REST API that returns an empty Results array when all of the data has been consumed. "Results":[]
This seems like it should be easy enough but it has me stumped. I'm returning the Results to a loop that tests for Results being null which doesn't work, but I'm not sure how to test for an empty array?
GetActivities = (Index, access_token) =>
let
Skip = Text.From(Index * RecordsPerPage),
RawData = Web.Contents(BaseUrl,
[
Headers=[
Authorization="Bearer " & access_token
],
RelativePath="/crm/activity?$skip=" & Skip
]
),
Source = Json.Document(RawData),
Result1 = Source[Result]
//res = try Source[Result] otherwise null,
//Result3 = try res otherwise null
in Result1,
access_token = GetToken(),
TestRun = List.Generate (
()=>
[Results = try GetActivities(0, access_token) otherwise null, Page = 0],
each [Results] <> null and [Page]<5,
each [Results = try GetActivities([Page] +1, access_token) otherwise null, Page = [Page]+1],
each [Results]
)
in
TestRun
Any pointers for a newbie would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
That did it JirkaZ, prolem solved.
Results2 = if (Record.HasFields(Results1{0}, {"Id"})) then Results1 else null
How can I integrate it into the code? I'm too new
@stew_ia Not sure from the top of my head but Json.Document typically returns a record, correct? So you could test the record with Record.HasFields perhaps?

Hi @stew_ia ,
Glad to hear that. Please accept your reply as a solution so that people who may have the same question can get the solution directly.
Best Regards,
