Merge

Combine two lists: append, join by key, or pair by position.

4 actions · No connection needed

Do things in Merge

Add a Merge step and choose a Mode. Choose the row to see the fields of each.

Later steps read a step’s output by its name: see Use data from earlier steps.

Not in your list? See When an app isn’t here.

For developers

In the API, which calls apps pieces, Merge is pieceId: "merge" with actionId: "merge", set by mode. Get an app returns every field.

It computes from its inputs only (pure). See How versions and side effects work.

Merge › Merge

Combine input A and input B into a single array.

Append (concatenate) and Cross-join (all combinations)

Input A · Required

First array, such as {{steps.fetch_users.rows}}.

Input B · Required

Second array, such as {{steps.fetch_orders.rows}}.

Combine by matching key

Input A · Required

First array, such as {{steps.fetch_users.rows}}.

Input B · Required

Second array, such as {{steps.fetch_orders.rows}}.

Key field(s) in A · Required

Field in A to match on (such as id). For a composite key, list several comma-separated (paired positionally with B).

Key field(s) in B · Optional

Field in B to match on. Defaults to the same as A. For a composite key, list the same number of comma-separated fields as A.

Join · Optional

How to combine the two lists.

Options: Inner: only rows that match, Left: all of A, enriched by B, Right: all of B, enriched by A, Outer: everything from both, Non-matches only: rows in A or B with no match.

Default: Inner: only rows that match.

Combine by position (zip)

Input A · Required

First array, such as {{steps.fetch_users.rows}}.

Input B · Required

Second array, such as {{steps.fetch_orders.rows}}.

Include Unpaired Items · Optional

When zipping by position and the lists differ in length: on (default) pads to the longer list, leaving the missing side empty; off stops at the shorter list.

On by default.
