Reformat/Rewirte Execution Response - Calling an apps script as an executable API

Is there a way to change the body response when using the method: scripts.run (https://developers.google.cn/apps-script/api/reference/rest/v1/scripts/run?hl=zh-cn)
As in the documentation (https://developers.google.cn/apps-script/api/reference/rest/v1/scripts/run?hl=zh-cn#request-body) stated this is the response I receive.
{
"done": true,
"response": {
"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.apps.script.v1.ExecutionResponse",
"result": {
"version": "v2",
"content": {
"messages": [
{
"text": "simple text with button",
"type": "text"
}
]
}
}
}
}
However, I would like to change it. Why? The software I use requires a special kind of response format to process the data.
Is there a way to achieve that?
Basically, I want this part to disappear:
"done": true,
"response": {
"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.apps.script.v1.ExecutionResponse",
"result": {
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Have you tried creating a new response object on the client side, after receiving the result from script.run and putting in only the key/value pairs that you need?
Example client-side JS:
let script_response = {
"done": true,
"response": {
"#type": "type.googleapis.com/google.apps.script.v1.ExecutionResponse",
"result": {
"version": "v2",
"content": {
"messages": [{
"text": "simple text with button",
"type": "text"
}]
}
}
}
};
let my_kind_of_response = {
"version": script_response.response.result.version,
"content": script_response.response.result.content
}
console.log(my_kind_of_response);
/* Log:
{
"version": "v2",
"content": {
"messages": [
{
"text": "simple text with button",
"type": "text"
}
]
}
}
*/

Postman - How to count occurrences of a specific object in a JSON response

I am new to JSON and Postman. I believe I'm trying to do something very simple.
I have created a GET request which will get a JSON response like the one below.
In the example below I want to get the count of All "IsArchived" attributes in the response;
The number of those attributes will vary from response to response.
How can I do it? Thanks in advance
{
"Id": 1328,
"Name": "AAA Test",
"Owner": {
"Id": 208,
"Name": "The Boss"
},
"FieldGroups": [
{
"Id": "c81376f0-6ac3-4028-8d61-76a0f815dbf8",
"Name": "General",
"FieldDefinitions": [
{
"Id": 1,
"DisplayName": "Product Name",
"IsArchived": false
},
{
"Id": 2,
"DisplayName": "Short Description",
"IsArchived": false
},
{
"Id": 33,
"DisplayName": "Long Description",
"IsArchived": false
},
]
},
{
"Id": "5ed8746b-0fa8-4022-8216-ad3af17db91f",
"Name": "Somethingelse",
"FieldDefinitions": [
{
"Id": 123,
"DisplayName": "Attribution",
"IsArchived": false
},
{
"Id": 1584,
"DisplayName": "FC1",
"IsArchived": false
},
{
"Id": 623,
"DisplayName": "Sizes",
"IsArchived": false,
"Owner": {
"Id": 208,
"Name": "The Boss"
},
"Unit": "",
"Options": [
{
"Id": 1,
"Value": "XS"
},
{
"Id": 2,
"Value": "S"
},
{
"Id": 3,
"Value": "M"
}
]
}
]
}
],
"IsArchived": false
"Version": 1
}

It is a rather specific solution but I hope it helps. The description is added as comments:
// Convert the response body to a JSON object
var jsonData = pm.response.json()
// Create a count variable which will be increased by 1 everytime IsArchived occurs
var count = 0;
function countIsArchived() {
// Loop through the FieldGroupsArray
_.each(jsonData.FieldGroups, (fieldGroupsArray) => {
// Loop through the FieldDefinitionsArray
_.each(fieldGroupsArray.FieldDefinitions, (fieldDefinitionsArray) => {
// Check if IsArchived exists
if(fieldDefinitionsArray.IsArchived) {
// Increase count by 1
count++;
}
});
});
// IF you want it:
// Check if IsArchived exists on the top level of the JSON response and increase count
if(jsonData.IsArchived) {
count++;
}
// IF you want it:
// Create a Postman environment variable and assign the value of count to it
pm.environment.set("count", count);
}
Additional info:
The , after the following object is not needed. It invalidates the JSON:
{
"Id": 33,
"DisplayName": "Long Description",
"IsArchived": false
}, <--

How to manipulate this JSON using Javascript

I am getting this response from an API:
{
"statuses": {
"status": [
{
"name": "Member",
"id": "1"
},
{
"name": "Attender",
"id": "3"
},
{
"name": "Child",
"id": "4"
}
]
}
}
But I need to somehow flatten the response to be this:
{
"name": "Member",
"id": "1"
},
{
"name": "Attender",
"id": "3"
},
{
"name": "Child",
"id": "4"
}
How can I do that using Javascript?

var response = {
"statuses": {
"status": [
{
"name": "Member",
"id": "1"
},
{
"name": "Attender",
"id": "3"
},
{
"name": "Child",
"id": "4"
}
]
}
}
var statusObj = response.statuses.status;
$('#result').text('First name is: ' + statusObj[0].name)
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<label id="result"/>

You can do JSON.parse(str) and then you you just take the data from status[x]
If you really want to keep it as a string you can do
var content = str.match(/\[(.*?)\]/);

In fact, you just need to retrieve by response.statuses.status from your Javascript object.
But , If you needed to convert json to javascript object,
please use JSON.parse(your json response) method using JSON.js.
Download the JSON.js from https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSON-js

}
How to reconstruct JSON object. please help me friends I was strucked with this problem.
Thanks in advance

Assume the JSON as string is saved in the variable called json you can use the following code:
var newObject = {
"formProperties": {
"table": "users",
"mode": "insert",
"method":"post",
"action":"urlhere",
"user":"admin"
},
"formValues": JSON.parse(json)
};
var newJson = JSON.stringify(newObject);

Getting Messages from Inbox

I have a question about the Graph API.
I use Javascript for the API and make a little test website ,where you can log in ,look for new messages and write a new status.
My problem is that I can't get the messages or the thread.
FB.api('/me/inbox',function(response) { alert(response.id); } ); don't work.
Have somebody an example for getting the messages in the inbox??
Thanks

The /me/inbox request requires that you have the read_mailbox permission granted.
Once you've got that, the /me/inbox request will return an array of Thread's, which will look something like this;
{
"data": [
{
"id": "1126884978255",
"from": {
"name": "Someone's Name",
"id": "34723472"
},
"to": {
"data": [
{
"name": "Someone's Name",
"id": "34723472"
},
{
"name": "Matt Lunn",
"id": "560914724"
}
]
},
"message": "Testing the one-ness.",
"updated_time": "2012-01-31T12:13:00+0000",
"unread": 0,
"unseen": 0,
"comments": {
"data": [
{
"id": "1126884978255_6769",
"from": {
"name": "Someone's Name",
"id": "34723472"
},
"message": "£140!?",
"created_time": "2012-01-31T11:33:15+0000"
},
{
"id": "1126884978255_6771",
"from": {
"name": "Matt Lunn",
"id": "560914724"
},
"message": "^^ month in advance as well",
"created_time": "2012-01-31T11:33:26+0000"
}
]
},
"type": "thread"
}
],
"summary": {
"unseen_count": 0,
"unread_count": 21,
"updated_time": "2012-01-31T13:19:31+0000"
}
}
So depending which ID you're after, you'll have to do;
for (var i=0;i<response.data.length;i++) {
var thread = response.data[i];
for (var j=0;j<thread.comments.data.length;j++) {
var comment = thread.comments.data[j];
console.log(comment.message);
}
}
Hopefully you get the idea...
