Check if several variables are present into json text

How To

Hello everyone,

I am wondering about the feasibility of a process that I would like to create with Make. (It is not yet created)

I would like to retrieve a json text via an HTTP request, and then I would like to check if the text contains specific variables based on 250 known variables. If one or more variables are present, retrieve their value.

Do you think it is possible to search in a json text for the presence of 250 variables? If so, how? It seems complicated to me to apply a regex with 250 variables… Do you see another solution?

Thanks in advance !

I don’t see why not, there is no limitation on regex size.

A simpler method would be to use AI (Groq/OpenAI) to transform into structured data.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

P.S.: Did you know, the concepts of about 70% of questions asked on this forum are already covered in the Make Academy. Investing some effort into it will save you lots of time and frustration using Make later!

Yep its very possible. I do this to replace certain variables automatically within my blueprints and then create a new scenario using the edited blueprint.

When handling large amounts of the variables I use I store them in a database and retrieve them for whatever conditions I need them for.

Hope this helps!
