我想将数据存储在Web API的数组中

Question

I want to use values from the web api , everything is running fine but when I read values from the url in a single variable it comes as large data:

 var orguni = "http://hospdev.hispindia.org/haryana_220/api/organisationUnits?fields=name,id,code"; $.ajax({ type: "GET", url: orguni, dataType: "xml", crossDomain: true, headers: { }, success: function (xml) { $(xml).find('organisationUnit ').each(function () { var ou = $(this).attr('id'); console.log("UID: "+ ou); }); } }); 

Now when I display ou it returns a list of different id's and I want to use all id's as separate value, can anybody tell me how to do that.

Currently it returns:

index.html:26 UID:  g8cMOWx5ydN
index.html:26 UID:  Q2FEgPgHvMr
index.html:26 UID:  XpIf2v7cJRX
index.html:26 UID:  uoPA7guOuLa
index.html:26 UID:  BLpdsMuZcqD

When I use console.log(ou[0]); it returns 1st char from each like:

g
Q
x
...

Answer 1

var array = [];    
$(xml).find('organisationUnit ').each(function () {
    var ou = $(this).attr('id');
    array.push(ou); 
});

array[0] will now be g8cMOWx5ydN.

What ou[0] is doing is turning g8cMOWx5ydN into an array and returning index 0, which is 'g'.

Edit Following Comment

you can either use the Id as you retrieve it, and not use the array.

$(xml).find('organisationUnit ').each(function () {
    var id = $(this).attr('id');

    // use id ajax call here
});

or you can use the array after the each

var array = [];    
$(xml).find('organisationUnit ').each(function () {
   var ou = $(this).attr('id');
   array.push(ou); 
});

//other code

for(var i=0; i<array.length; i++){
   var id = array[i];

   // use id ajax call here
}
