## Accessing Data: Handlebars
|
|
|
|
The current row data and other details will be available in the hooks payload so the user can use [handlebar syntax](https://handlebarsjs.com/guide/#simple-expressions) to use data.
|
|
|
|
> We are using [Handlebars](https://handlebarsjs.com/) library to parse the payload internally.
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
For a table with column names (id, title, created_at, updated_at).
|
|
For INSERT/ UPDATE based triggers, use following handlebars to access corresponding **data** fields.
|
|
|
|
- {{ **data**.id }}
|
|
- {{ **data**.title }}
|
|
- {{ **data**.created_at }}
|
|
- {{ **data**.updated_at }}
|
|
|
|
Note that, for Update trigger - all the fields in the ROW will be accessible, not just the field updated.
|
|
For DELETE based triggers, **only** {{ data.id }} is accessible representing ID of the column deleted.
|
|
|
|
For all trigger, following **user** information associated with person trigger can be accessed.
|
|
|
|
- {{ **user**.id }} : Unique auto incremented NocoDB system value
|
|
- {{ **user**.email }} : User E-mail.
|
|
- {{ **user**.roles }} : User Role amongst [Owner, Creator, Editor, Commenter, Viewer].
|
|
|
|
### JSON format
|
|
|
|
Use {{ json data }} {{ json user }} to dump complete data & user information available in JSON format
|
