Basic JSON Export

When you click Export as JSON from a rundown's Export menu, a modal will open.

You can click the copy to clipboard icon to copy the JSON or the download button to download the JSON file to your computer.

Custom JSON transform

If you do not want the default JSON as-is, you can transform the JSON output before you download. By checking the Transform output with JSONata option, you'll get a field where you can put a JSONata expression. Transformations will let you do things like:

  • Return a JSON object for each row

  • Filter out undesired columns

  • Create a custom column and control its values

Example JSONata expressions

Here are a few examples to get you started

// only export rows that have a blockId in the result
$[blockId != null]

// include only the scriptId and blockId columns in the export
$.{
"scriptId": scriptId,
"blockId": blockId
}

// create a custom column with the values from two others
$.{
"scriptId plus blockId": scriptId & ' - ' & blockId
}

📚Please refer to the JSONata documentation to learn more about writing your own expressions.
