The Javascript query is returning an [object Object] data type

I am facing an issue with a JavaScript file that is querying a SharePoint list. Specifically, the Priority drop down in the query result is displaying as [object OBJECT]. I suspect it has something to do with the var query string where I have added the 'Priority' column but it does not seem to be affecting the outcome.

var query = "http://collaboration-de.vxxx.com/sites/it/SystemInventory/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/Devices?$expand=LifeCycleStatus&Priority&$filter=Id eq " + window.DeviceId + "";

The complete JavaScript code is provided below:

function getDeviceDetails() {
var txtTitle = "";
var txtOverview = "";
var txtAccessories = "";
var txtDevicetype = "";
var txtTypicalDeviceUsage ="";
var txtKnownSystemIssues ="";
var txtLifeCycles = "";
var txtTrafficlight = "";
    var tempLCS2 = "";

var query = "http://collaboration-dev.xxx/sites/it/SystemInventory/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/Devices?$expand=LifeCycleStatus&Priority&$filter=Id eq " + window.DeviceId + "";
    var call = $.ajax({
        url: query,
        type: "GET",
        dataType: "json",
        headers: {
            Accept: "application/json;odata=verbose"
        }       
    });
call.done(function (data,textStatus, jqXHR){
$.each(data.d.results, function(index, item) {
        var tempID = item.Id;
        var tempTitle = item.Title;

        var LifeCycleStart = item.DeviceAvailableFrom;

        var LifeCycleStatus = item.LifeCycleStatusValue;
        var DeviceOverView = item.Description;
        var AccessDetails = item.Accessories;
        var DeviceKind = item.Devicetype;
        var Usage = item.TypicalUsage;
        var DevicePriority = item.Priority;

        txtTitle = "<p>" + LifeCycleStart + "</p><p>" + LifeCycleStatus + "</p>";
        txtOverview = "<p>" + DeviceOverView + "</p>";
        txtAccessories = "<p>" + AccessDetails + "</p>";  
        txtDevicetype = "<p>" + DeviceKind  + "</p>";
        txtTypicalDeviceUsage = "<p>" + Usage + "</p>";
        txtTrafficlight = "<p>" + DevicePriority + "</p>";

    });

    $('#devicedetails').append($(txtTitle));  
    $('#deviceoverview').append($(txtOverview));
    $('#devicekind').append(txtDevicetype);
    $('#deviceacc').append(txtAccessories);
    $('#deviceuse').append(txtTypicalDeviceUsage);
    $('#devicestatus').append(txtTrafficlight);

});

call.fail(function (jqXHR,textStatus,errorThrown){
    alert("Error retrieving data: " + jqXHR.responseText);
});

}

Answer №1

The attributes "Priority" and "LifeCycleStatus" both hold object data. By using the debugger or console, you can explore these objects further to reveal a string with a value and internal ID, along with other potential information. When attempting to convert an object to a string, it typically returns as "[object Object]".

It's likely that "PriorityValue" and "LifeCycleStatusValue" serve as shortcuts to access the actual value contained within the respective objects.
