The idea is to remove duplicate id's upon selection of records using checkbox. Below is the code used.

selectedTaskObj3 = [];
let el = this.template.querySelector("lightning-datatable");
let selectedRowsArray = el.getSelectedRows();
//**note**: until here I get the output as an object array
let selectedTaskObjChecktest = JSON.stringify(selectedRowsArray).map((item)=>item.Id)
this.selectedTaskObj3 = Array.from(new Set(selectedTaskObjChecktest));

However it is working perfect in console log but not on the page which is totally strange.

    You JSON.stringify the data, thus making a "string", so the map function would fail.

  • Also, you're not even using JSON.stringify in the console. You have your objArray object, which you then call map on. What happens in your code above when you call selectedRowsArray.map?

  • @sfdcfox Thanks for your response . I got it now. Removed the JSON.stringify now and tried. For some reason I did not try to use directly without stringyfying. Now it works perfect.

You do not JSON.stringify an Array before attempting to use Array methods, such as Array.prototype.map.
