I have a FUNCTION node that produces an array with string URL’s. I want to pass this to an HTTP node to call each of these URLS and then merge the data. Any ideas?
Hey @go4cas!
Do you have multiple items, or do you have a single item (an array in your case), that contains all the URLs? If you have a single item, you will have to convert it into multiple items. Here’s the code snippet that will be helpful: JavaScript Code Snippets | Docs
Thanks, @harshil1712 … I have tried both these inputs:
[
[
{
"file":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-01-2021.csv"
},
{
"file":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-02-2021.csv"
},
{
"file":"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-03-2021.csv"
}
]
]
and
[
[
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-01-2021.csv",
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-02-2021.csv",
"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CSSEGISandData/COVID19/master/csse_covid_19_data/csse_covid_19_daily_reports/01-03-2021.csv"
]
]
But, I’m not sure how to get each URL in the HTTP node?
For n8n, this is a single item and not multiple items. You need to have a structure as below to have multiple items that n8n can handle for you
[
{
"URL":"URL-1"
},
{
"URL":"URL-2"
},
{
"URL":"URL-3"
},
]
To generate this structure, your code snippet should be as follow:
return [
{
json: {
"url":'url-1'
}
},
{
json: {
"url":'url-1'
}
},
{
json: {
"url":'url-1'
}
}
]
