Answer 1

Which json you are rendering to ejs file you can access it in this way.

router.get("/csv_edit",admin_auth, (req, res) => {
res.render("admin-dashboard", {
    page: {
        name: "edit-csv-main",
        csvId: req.query.csv_id,
        ip: req.ipInfo.ip
    }
});

});

In your javascript file

let r = <%- page %>

How'bout something like...

In nodejs...

res.render('mytemplate', { arrayOfRecs });

In views/mytemplate.ejs...

<%
    arrayOfRecs.forEach(rec => {
        console.log('This is rec: ', rec);
    });
%>
