How can I get object ID of the Parse Object in Cloud Code?

[duong...@gmail.com]

Hello, 

I need to get objectID of an Parse Object.

In the old parse, I get the object ID via statement: object.id, but in this host I can't get it.

My example code:

like.save(null).then(function(result) {

var createdMemeID = result.get("created_meme").id;

var MeMe = Parse.Object.extend("MeMe");

var query = new Parse.Query(MeMe);

query.equalTo("objectId", createdMemeID);

query.include("created_user");

return query.first();

}).then(function(result) {

var createdUser = result.get("created_user");

toUserDeviceToken = createdUser.get("deviceToken");

toUserId = createdUser.id;

Hi, Try just:

result.id

[duong...@gmail.com]

But, I want to get the ObjectID of a pointer in the result, not the ObjectID of the result.

My code is like : 

comment.save(null).then(function(result) {

var meme = result.get("created_meme");

response.success(meme.id);

I want get objectID of meme via meme.id, but I can't.

I also try:

result.get("created_meme").id

but I can't get the id although I can get it in Parse.com

How to fix it? I use ObjectID everywhere so I need to fix it. Thank you. :)

When you save, the result is already the object you've just saved. Just do it:

comment.save().then(function(result) {

var meme = result;

response.success(meme.id);

I am sorry :(, but I need to get the ID of Pointer, not the ID of result.

There are something I can explain to you:

1. My cloud code function:

Parse.Cloud.define("postAComment", function(request, response) {

//Use master key

Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey();

//Params from request

var nameOfUser = request.params.name_of_user;

var userId = request.params.created_user; // User who liked this meme post

var memeId = request.params.created_meme; // User who

var content = request.params.content; 

// //Create two pointer

var meme = {"__type": "Pointer",

"className": "MeMe",

"objectId": memeId

};

var user =  {"__type": "Pointer",

"className": "_User",

"objectId": userId

};

//Comment

var Comment = Parse.Object.extend("Comment");

var comment = new Comment();

//Set variable to Object Comment

comment.set("created_meme", meme);

comment.set("created_user", user);

comment.set("content", content);

//Comment save

comment.save(null).then(function(result) {

response.success(result);

}

});

2. The result of this response is:

{

  "result": {

    "created_meme": {

      "__type": "Pointer",

      "className": "MeMe",

      "objectId": "Qg8hcLsJKA"

    },

    "created_user": {

      "__type": "Pointer",

      "className": "_User",

      "objectId": "Z1haCpo00L"

    },

    "content": "Hello",

    "createdAt": "2016-04-10T06:00:17.209Z",

    "updatedAt": "2016-04-10T06:00:17.209Z",

    "objectId": "wYm7NVuKVa",

    "__type": "Object",

    "className": "Comment"

  }

}

3. And when I want to get the ObjectID of pointer named created_meme, I change this code from:

comment.save(null).then(function(result) {

response.success(result);

}

to...

comment.save(null).then(function(result) {

var meme = result.get("created_meme");

response.success(meme.id);

}

The response which I got is:

{}

I think the result must be:

{

result: "Qg8hcLsJKA";

}

And I check the log, no error was happen...

I can get the objectID of the pointer using this method which I explain above via Parse.com

But I can't get it in your service... :(

Hi, I created an app and simulated your scenario. The code below worked for me:

Parse.Cloud.define("postAComment", function(request, response) {

//Use master key

Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey();

//Params from request

var nameOfUser = request.params.name_of_user;

var userId = request.params.created_user; // User who liked this meme post

var memeId = request.params.created_meme; // User who

var content = request.params.content; 

// //Create two pointer

var meme = {"__type": "Pointer",

"className": "MeMe",

"objectId": memeId

};

var user =  {"__type": "Pointer",

"className": "_User",

"objectId": userId

};

//Comment

var Comment = Parse.Object.extend("Comment");

var comment = new Comment();

//Set variable to Object Comment

comment.set("created_meme", meme);

comment.set("created_user", user);

comment.set("content", content);

//Comment save

comment.save(null).then(function(result) {

response.success(result.get("created_meme").objectId);

});

});
