I need to extract listImages that have a status of ‘Existing` inside of an array. My problem is that it gets its parent array.

Data

lists = [
  {
    "listID": "1",
    "listImages": [
      {
        "id": "111",
        "status": "Existing"
      },
      {
        "id": "222",
        "status": "Non-Existing"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "listID": "2",
    "listImages": [
      {
        "id": "333",
        "status": "Non-Existing"
      }
    ]
  }
]

Current Code

const images = lists.map((list) => ({
  ...list,
  listImages: (list.listImages?? []).filter(
    ({ status }) => status === "Existing"
  ),
}));

Expected Output

["111"]

>Solution :

Looks like you just want to get the id. Simply do filter followed by a map for each list. If you want to do this process on all lists and merge the arrays to one, use flatMap.

lists = [
  {
    "listID": "1",
    "listImages": [
      {
        "id": "111",
        "status": "Existing"
      },
      {
        "id": "222",
        "status": "Non-Existing"
      }
    ]
  },
  {
    "listID": "2",
    "listImages": [
      {
        "id": "333",
        "status": "Non-Existing"
      }
    ]
  }
];

const images = lists.flatMap( list => list.listImages.filter(image => image.status === "Existing").map(image => image.id));
console.log(images);
