Question

How can I achieve it?

Answer 1

With underscore you can use the filter function:

var data = { a: 1, b: undefined, c: 3};

var noUndefineds = _.filter(data, function(value){
    return value != undefined;
});

or use the reject function with the isUndefined predicate:

var noUndefineds = _.reject(data, _.isUndefined);

Answer 2

You could do like below:

for(var k in obj) { 
  if (typeof obj[k] == 'undefined') { 
    delete obj[k]; 
}}
