Merge Node is not working as it is getting Undefined on Input2

Questions

I’m trying to get Merge Combine by Matching Fields with Keep Non-matches to get a list of new items to work from a combination of a HTTP request and a google sheet… it has been working until yerterday. Input 2 is showing the field data as undefined… If I disconnect Input 1 from the node, the Merge node can find the Input 2 data…. but if I reconnect Input 1 into the Merge node, the Input 2 field gets undefined again, thus the merge node does not have data to compare.

Merge is using field to match. Not value

The expected Field should be key

While your expression is represent value and it will cause Merge not working.

If the value like Company name have some different like upper case or format.

You need to convert the format before Merge node.

both field types are Text.. do you have any suggestion to normalize formats?

maybe put a set field node before merge. And normalize in set field first.
