Working with Lists

[PPetterssonSO]

Hi,
We are having trouble figuring out how to work with the list agents.

It always crashes, without hitting the catch.
For example:
try
{
var listAgent = soApi.getListAgent();
var listOfCountries = [752];
printLine("It passes this point"); // <-- custom print function..
const mmm = await listAgent.getCountryListAsync(listOfCountries); //Or any other function in listAgent..
printLine("It does not pass this point");

}
catch
{
printLine("error"); // <-- custom print function..
}

Only returns: It passes this point
And, for more generic functions, like: getAllCountriesAsync

What is SO.List_GetAllCountriesRequests? that's required as a parameter?
How do we populate it, and with what?

SO.ListAgent.getAllCountriesAsync(request: SO.List_GetAllCountriesRequest, webapi_options?: base.WebApiRequestOptions): Promise<SO.Country[]> (+1 overload)

Hello @Nawksen,

I'm not sure what you mean, this code works:

try
{
    var listAgent = soApi.getListAgent();
    var listOfCountries = [752];
    const result = await listAgent.getCountryListAsync(listOfCountries);
    result.forEach(function (value) {
        context.result.body = value.name;
    }); 
}
catch
{
    context.result.body = "hit the catch";
}

So maybe there is something with your custom printLine-function (?)

Can you try my snippet and see if it works for you?

Sigh, I forgot the await part of the await DoSomeListStuff()

My bad on that one, thanks for the reply

Glad i could help!
No worries, we are taking all comments/Questions as feedback at this point, to try and make it easier to work with.

Another quick question regarding lists, is it possible to include or exclude deleted listRows?

var listAgent = soApi.getMDOAgent();
var response = await listAgent.getSimpleListAsync(listName, );

Lists exclude deleted rows by default. Include them by adding ShowDeleted to the Additional parameter.

Forum reference

A better alternative is to use GetSelectableList and inspect the Deleted property.
