Json string creation form

Questions and Help
1

I want to create a snippet that allows me to create easily json strings (as a output):
{"dropdown_options":[{"id":1,"label":"Option A"},{"id":2,"label":"Option B"},{"id":3,"label":"Option C"}]}

where it extends with id and label infinitely inside a form that you input in.

Is that possible?

Hey @CuteKitsuneForever_J try out this snippet:

{note}Fill in your dropdown options below. Add as many as you like.{endnote}

{formparagraph: name=Raw Options; default=Option A
Option B
Option C}

{options_list=split(`Raw Options`, "
")}

{"dropdown_options":[{=join(
map(
filter(options_list, v -> trim(v) <> ""),
(v, i) -> concat(
"{\"id\":", i, ",\"label\":\"", replaceregex(trim(v), "\"", "\\\"", "g"), "\"}"
)
),
","
)}]}

You can read more about the various formulas on this page: https://blaze.today/formulas/reference Here's a brief explanation of this snippet:

  • Uses a paragraph form field (formparagraph) to let you type one option per line
  • Splits the input text into a list by newlines using split()
  • Filters out any blank lines with filter() and trim()
  • Maps over each option using map(), assigning an auto-incrementing id (starting at 1) and a label from your input
  • Escapes any quotes inside your option labels using replaceregex() so the JSON stays valid
  • Joins all the generated objects together with commas using join()
  • Wraps everything in the final {"dropdown_options":[...]} JSON structure
