Example(s)

Example 1: Unpack an object into properties

• Create an UnpackObject Block.
• Set the properties to output name and age.
• Provide the input object: {"name": "John", "age": 30}.
• The Block will send "John" to the name output and 30 to the age output.

Error Handling

• If a property in the object is not mapped to an output, it will be ignored.

FAQ

What happens if the object contains properties not defined in properties?

Those properties will be ignored unless explicitly defined in the Block’s properties.
