I need to convert a JavaScript object of one type: [ { "label": "A", "children": [ { "label": "A.1", "children": [ { "label": "A.1.1", …

Completed the formulation: var obj2 = {}; var level = 0; function operation(object) { let obji = {}; for (let i = 0; i < object.length; ++i) { obji[`item${i}`] = { "id": object[i][id], "label": object[i]["label"], }; } obj2[`level_${level}`…

What are the rules for converting? I don’t understand how exactly the second is made from the first, and that’s definitely the first part to writing a code to do this.

Right, but how does that conversion work? i.e. for X in the first object, it goes into the second object by…

I would iterate over the outermost array containing A & B objects, & populate them as values for Level1 key. { "level1" : { "item1" : objectA, "item2": objectB } } I would check if object A has children, 2.1. if it does, I would have a key-value pair like: "reference":"A's_child_identifier" add…

Yes that’s right. Here only we have depth of 3. Sorry to add to the confusion. I should have used better naming than L1, L2.

Basically the reference field identifies that a node has child items. And the child items can be found in the key denoted by value of reference. And since it’s sort of a tree structure, there can be multiple depths.

I’m sort of near the solution, just stuck on adding the (reference: level_x) or (reference: l_x) key-value pair. let obj2 = {}; function operation(level, object) { let obji = {}; for (let i = 0; i < object.length; ++i) { obji[`item${i}`] = object[i]; } obj2[`level_${level…

ah! My bad. Placed it by mistake. Thanks. must remove that part [image] camperextraordinaire: "id": object[i][id],

well the original object is like a hierarchy of items (like a graph) & I want this to be converted to sort of a level order traversal.
