I'm starting off with ADFv2 and am facing an issue while trying to find out the length of a string. Although the portal says length('abc') should work, it is actually not working. What is the workaround for this?
PFB error snapshot:
If the variable is of type String, just convert the value to a string using this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/control-flow-expression-language-functions#string
string(length('abc'))
Hope this helped!

I am trying to solve the problem with chars encoding in api results. I have tried already to convince API provide to add utf-8 definition to header, but without success. So I need to convert result by myself in dart/flutter.
Tried already many things with Utf8Decoder or utf8.encode/decode, but without proper result.
Below example is in Polish. What I should have is:
Czesi walczą z pożarem
What I have in API results is:
Czesi walczÄ z pożarem
How can I decode the string to proper format?
Thanks!
I am running my ADF pipeline with Dataflow and I am getting the output as json as something like this
{"key1":"value1","key2":"[vaq:233,popo:basic5542]"}
However, my actual requirement is to have something like this.
{"key1":"value1","key2":["vaq:233","popo:basic5542"]}
Check the placement of double inverted commas for key "key2".In my Data factory pipeline I am using Derived column action in Dataflow and for key2 I am doing concat ("[",Data1,",popo:basic5542]" ) and Data1 has value vaq:233.
How can I adjust the double inverted comma here?
You could you use the below expression and check whether this meets your requirement.
array(Data1,"popo:basic5542")
Instead of the concat function.
Output :
["pea:P1013","popo:basic5542"]
Considering popo:basic5542 is a static value, you can try as below expression.
concat("[","\"",Data1,"\"",",","\"","popo:basic5542","\"","]")
Or if you are getting popo and basic5542 dynamically, you can try as below.
concat("[","\"",Data1,"\"",",","\"",popo,":",basic5542,"\"","]")
Example:
Is there any character limit on ADF string variable ? I am trying to store a big script in ADF variable , which seems to be working fine but this is a dynamic script so I wonder if there is any storage limit to it? My use case is that based on some tabular input , I am forming a script and need to send it to some compute , I didn't find any other solution apart from using a string variable.
There isn't upper limit of the ADF string variable. No documents talked about it and can't find any useful messages.
But I tested and found that you can set variable value length until you get the browser SBOX_FATAL_MEMORY_EXECEEDED error. I put a 16M string to the variable value:
You also could set a big size string as the variable value to prove that. The key is that I don't know the how to get the SBOX_FATAL_MEMORY. I googled and found nothing about it.
Hope it's useful for you.
and thanks for looking!
I have an instance of YouTrack with several custom fields, some of which are String-type. I'm implementing a module to create a new issue via the YouTrack REST API's PUT request, and then updating its fields with user-submitted values by applying commands. This works great---most of the time.
I know that I can apply multiple commands to an issue at the same time by concatenating them into the query string, like so:
Type Bug Priority Critical add Fix versions 5.1 tag regression
will result in
Type: Bug
Priority: Critical
Fix versions: 5.1
in their respective fields (as well as adding the regression tag). But, if I try to do the same thing with multiple String-type custom fields, then:
Foo something Example Something else Bar P0001
results in
Foo: something Example Something else Bar P0001
Example:
Bar:
The command only applies to the first field, and the rest of the query string is treated like its String value. I can apply the command individually for each field, but is there an easier way to combine these requests?
Thanks again!
This is an expected result because all string after foo is considered a value of this field, and spaces are also valid symbols for string custom fields.
If you try to apply this command via command window in the UI, you will actually see the same result.
Such a good question.
I encountered the same issue and have spent an unhealthy amount of time in frustration.
Using the command window from the YouTrack UI I noticed it leaves trailing quotations and I was unable to find anything in the documentation which discussed finalizing or identifying the end of a string value. I was also unable to find any mention of setting string field values in the command reference, grammer documentation or examples.
For my solution I am using Python with the requests and urllib modules. - Though I expect you could turn the solution to any language.
The rest API will accept explicit strings in the POST
import requests
import urllib
from collections import OrderedDict
URL = 'http://youtrack.your.address:8000/rest/issue/{issue}/execute?'.format(issue='TEST-1234')
params = OrderedDict({
'State': 'New',
'Priority': 'Critical',
'String Field': '"Message to submit"',
'Other Details': '"Fold the toilet paper to a point when you are finished."'
})
str_cmd = ' '.join(' '.join([k, v]) for k, v in params.items())
command_url = URL + urllib.urlencode({'command':str_cmd})
result = requests.post(command_url)
# The command result:
# http://youtrack.your.address:8000/rest/issue/TEST-1234/execute?command=Priority+Critical+State+New+String+Field+%22Message+to+submit%22+Other+Details+%22Fold+the+toilet+paper+to+a+point+when+you+are+finished.%22
I'm sad to see this one go unanswered for so long. - Hope this helps!
edit:
After continuing my work, I have concluded that sending all the field
updates as a single POST is marginally better for the YouTrack
server, but requires more effort than it's worth to:
1) know all fields in the Issues which are string values
2) pre-process all the string values into string literals
3) If you were to send all your field updates as a single request and just one of them was missing, failed to set, or was an unexpected value, then the entire request will fail and you potentially lose all the other information.
I wish the YouTrack documentation had some mention or discussion of
these considerations.
I'm learning Chrome Postman now and my issue now is:
I need to generate a new value of a parameter for each request.
So each request (I make a POST) must have a unique value of this parameter.
So far I thought to manage it with environment variables and I have done it like this:
I add a new environment variable with a unique value
I use this variable in the "value" field on a parameter
And it doesn't work - I get error 401 Authorization Required.
Seems that the error is not connected to the parameter at all but as soon as I change the parameter and manually input a unique data it works well!
So this will work for me:
Please suggest what I'm doing wrong here and advice how to do it right. Thanks!
Spent some more hours investigating I found my problem!
The problem is the value I put into a variable - it included ":" sign and this sign simply changed my URL.
