How to input multiple variables for Custom JS Module

How To

Hi I’m using the custom JS module and It appears in the input field it allows for multiple variables however in the output when in the logs it appears to be one long string rather than multiple variables/inputs.

In the input field I’ve put a long string value and another variable containing a number:

To pass more than one variable to the CJS module, you will need to use VALID JSON.

e.g.:

{
  "variable1": {{2.variable1}},
  "variable2": {{2.variable2}}
}

How to use the Custom JS module?

  1. Map a variable (or a JSON object) into the “Input” field.

  2. Write a function to do something with the input variable. If the input is a JSON, you can reference object properties using dot notation.

  3. Write a final statement to return the call of the function you wrote.
