Check if the Field is Boolean
| Definition: | isBoolean(fieldname: str) → bool |
| Description: | Checks if a specific field contains a boolean data type value. The return value can be further used to transform the data. For example, setting the account exists field to Yes. |
| Parameters: | fieldname: The name of the field whose value is to be checked. |
| Returns: | - True, if the specified field’s value is of type, boolean. - False, for null and non-boolean values. |
The following script checks if the specified property is a boolean:
from io.hevo.api import Event
def transform(event):
<existing_properties> = event.getProperties()
<boolean_value_type> = event.isBoolean('<property_name>')
return event
Sample Transformation
The following script checks if the property named available is a boolean. The isBoolean property displays the return value of the method:
from io.hevo.api import Event
def transform(event):
properties = event.getProperties()
# Check if the 'available' field is Boolean
if event.isBoolean('available'):
properties['isBoolean'] = 'Yes'
return event
Sample Output
The Transformation sets the isBoolean property to Yes, as the available property is boolean.
