Hi,

I'm trying to loop through the nested object that contains an array. I am able to successfully render it in the main table as a td but not as a child row (it returns object object). I'm not sure if I'm missing something.

    Answer ✓

    The value variable is an object, for example: {office: 'London'}. You need to use value.office to have London displayed. See this updated example:

    Hi,

    Thanks for the reply. It works in the updated example however when I try in my project files a error in the console shows:
    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'location')

    When I try to console.log(d) it comes back as undefined

    Undefined means d doesn't exist in the function. The example has function format(d){...}. Do you have d as the parameter?

    Hi,

    I realized my mistake was that I was referencing the wrong table on td.details-control click.

    Thanks for the help
