response.content

[honeyapigee]

Hi all,

I'm new to Apigee. I'm working on a scenario, where I need to mention a condition if the response.content

{

Res:[{filed 1},{field 2}...{filed n}]

}

has less than 10 fields , I need to make a call to other service.

what is the condition to be used?

I tried below two options, none of them worked

1.<Condition>(response.content.length < 10)</Condition>

2. <Condition>(response.header.Content-Length < 10)</Condition>

build error:

The content of elements must consist of well-formed character data or markup.]"

Can some one suggest?

Thanks in advance

You could add a Javascript callout in which you set a boolean flow variable to true if the number of fields in Res is greater than 10.

It'd be something like this:

enoughFields = Object.keys(context.proxyRequest.body.asJSON.Res).length > 10;
context.SetVariable("hasEnoughFields", enoughFields);

Then you could check your condition as

<Condition>hasEnoughFields = "false"</Condition>

I haven't actually tested this code (so there may be some syntax error), but I hope you get the general gist
