CODE MODE: Randomize Array Items with JavaScript Code

ABOUT

If you are looking to randomize an array’s items, then try using a Code step.

You can ask ChatGPT by OpenAI for the code to do the randomization.
(Code may need to be tweaked to work in the Zap Code step)

Example: JavaScript to Randomize Array Items in Zapier

CONFIG

CODE

// Extract the 'Set' property from the inputData object
let Set = inputData.Set;

// Check if 'Set' exists
if (Set) {
  // If 'Set' exists, split it into an array using commas as the delimiter
  Set = Set.split(",");
}

// Define a function to randomize the elements in an array
let randomizeArray = (array) => {
  // Iterate over the array starting from the last element
  for (let i = array.length - 1; i > 0; i--) {
    // Generate a random index from 0 to i (inclusive)
    const j = Math.floor(Math.random() * (i + 1));
    // Swap the current element with the randomly selected element
    barray i], arrayij]] = aarray j], arrayji]];
  }
  // Return the randomized array
  return array;
};

// Randomize the 'Set' array using the randomizeArray function
let SetX = randomizeArray(i...Set]);

// Assign an array with the original 'Set' and the randomized 'SetX' to the output variable
output = o{ Set, SetX }];
