try:
event['ids']
except NameError:
ids = None
This is throwing a KeyError. I just want to check if the event variable exists and set to none or pass the value if it does. I have also tried to use
if (len(event['ids']) < 1)
but get an error. Am I missing something? I may or may not have all my event keys passed and want to check for existence.
Use the get method. The second parameter is the default value if the key doesn't exist in the dictionary. It's the standard way to get values from a dictionary when you're not sure if the key exists and you don't want an exception.
ids = event.get('ids', None)
OrderItems in Amazons SP-API, you can't apply the 'data.get()` function for keys because it's a list of dictionaries. Getting main_data = res.get_order_items() initial payload, then using ord_items = main_data.get('OrderItems') to get correct data... but trying to use ord_items.get('ASIN','') does not work "list has no attribute get()". Is there a way around this? As this is the easiest way to check if a key exists. I've been having to use main_data['OrderItems'][0]['ASIN'].We can check if the key 'key1' exists in the Json dictionary.
{
"key1":"value1"
}
To retrieve the value 'value1' if the key 'key1' exists in the dictionary.
if event.get('key1',None) != None:
value = event.get('key1',None)
