How to find index of 'items_tolookfor' array of items in another nested Array List 'nested_data' in javascript
const items_tolookfor = []
console.log(items_tolookfor) is as below
0: "urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA"
1: "urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA"

How would I find indices for 'items_tolookfor' in the nested array list 'nested_data' Also, the corresponding data lies in the nested list 'nested_data' index[2][5]
I was trying this code:
console.log(items_tolookfor);
console.log(nested_data);
const found_indices = [];
for (const assdata in nested_data) {
const temp = [];
for (const fldr_data in items_tolookfor) {
const temp1 = assdata.indexOf(fldr_data);
temp.push(temp1);
}
found_indices.push(temp);
}
Expected result to be a console log output array with matching data for items_to_look_for array object found in nested_data array object, which is 0: [2][5], 1:[2][5], 2:[2][5], 3: [2][5], 4: [2][5], 5:[][]
Here's how you could go about that:
const items_to_look_for = [
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co._rdgx-sJT36zVaGNILbvvQ'
];
const nested_data = [
[],
[],
[
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.yoqKNIJMTmWvdxFIYGk8sg',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.eGqoz0IlTriGsYLTKbIrIA',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.O4tlfhMhSACS81dsygYJSw',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.FBQOhzXkSa6upov-iay5EQ',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.nXNGKsqTQUGr_hcTXy6U5g',
'urn:adsk.wipprod:fs.folder:co.uqbu12FFQZO6y7GxUs7cKA'
]
];
function findIndexRecursive(item, data) {
for (let i = 0, len = data.length; i < len; i++) {
if (data[i] === item) {
return [i];
} else if (data[i] instanceof Array) {
const nestedIndex = findIndexRecursive(item, data[i]);
if (nestedIndex) {
return [i].concat(nestedIndex);
}
}
}
return null;
}
for (const item of items_to_look_for) {
console.log(findIndexRecursive(item, nested_data));
}
