Since 9.0.1

Syntax

getFields(set)

ArgumentTypeDescription
setRecordset or Structured Data

The recordset Recordset or Structured Data (see Understanding Data Types) to get the fields list from.

Get fields The getFields function will return each fieldname field name defined for the record data as an array, except for special internal field names (such as the stream_item_id).

Examples

The getFields function will return a list of field names. These can be extracted using normal array functions and assigned to a variable.

$fields = getFields(in) // ["foo", "bah", "field3"]
$field  = $fields[1]       // $field = "foo"
$value  = in.$field         // equivalent to in.foo

The dot notation supports dynamic access to fields when variables are used within the expression, in this case, $field = "foo" so in.foo will be assigned to $value.
