Liquid arrays personalization
Hello everyone I'm trying to implement this liquid code in one of my templates:
{% assign combinedResults = canvas_entry_properties.${data}.results | concat: canvas_entry_properties.${data}.featuredResults %} {% assign results = combinedResults | sort: 'totalEstimatedCost.amount' | reverse %}
The arrays canvas_entry_properties.${data}.results and canvas_entry_properties.${data}.featuredResults are two arrays that contain a list of offers, with each offer having a name, an ID, and a totalEstimatedCost.amount
Using this Liquid code, I want to first create a third array called combinedResults that merges the offers from both canvas_entry_properties.${data}.results and canvas_entry_properties.${data}.featuredResults. Then, I want to sort this combined array so that the offers are displayed in descending order based on totalEstimatedCost.amount, from the highest to the lowest price
However, the issue is that the displayed list first shows the two offers from the featuredResults array sorted in ascending order (from the smallest to the largest price), followed by the five offers from the results array sorted in descending order (from the largest to the smallest price).
Do any of you know why this could happen? the structure of the original arrays is the same.
Thank you in advance!

Theoretically, I understand what you're hoping to achieve in your code, but:
- Not seeing "sort" as one of the supported Liquid tags unfortunately
- Even if "sort" did work, I'm not sure if in the Braze Liquid version, you can add a parameter that goes deeper into the object.
Will do a bit more research/testing, and keep us posted..! Thank you for sharing!
Both sort and sort_reverse work in Braze Liquid e.g. to get your prices in descending order:
{% assign combinedResults = canvas_entry_properties.${data}.results | concat: canvas_entry_properties.${data}.featuredResults %} {% assign results = combinedResults | sort_reverse: 'totalEstimatedCost.amount' %}From the result that you're getting, my guess is that in one or both of the arrays, the totalEstimatedCost.amount isn't an integer, so it's not sorting properly?
