I am trying to get the user object from objectId. I know the objectId is valid. But I can get this simple query to work. What is wrong with it? user is still undefined after the query. var getUserObject = function(userId){ Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey(); var user; var userQuery = new Parse.Query(Parse.User); userQuery.equalTo("objectId", userId); userQuery.first({ success: function(userRetrieved){ console.log('UserRetrieved is :' + userRetrieved.get("firstName")); user = userRetrieved; } }); console.log('\nUser is: '+ user+'\n'); return user; }; Quick cloud code example using promises. I've got

I have created a Background Job in Parse Cloud Code that sends out email notifications based on a date in one of my Parse classes. Here is the idea: Query the class that contains the date. Iterate over each object returned and check the date field. If the date is equal to today, send out an email notification, change the date to null and save it back to Parse.

Below is relevant code Parse.Cloud.job("job",

Say you have a "define" Parse.com cloud code function... Parse.Cloud.define("exampleDefineFunction", function(request, response) { ... response.success("ok") ... response.error("doh") }); I want to make another cloud code function, which calls that define function a number of times in series , with one waiting for the next, much as in a serial promise chain Can this be done? Russell I think this should do the trick! In this scenario we want to use Parse.Promise.when() Returns a new promise that is fulfilled when all of the input promises are resolved. If any promise in the list fails, then the

I have a strange problem over here. I have a project built with Parse.com as a backend (using cloudcode to verify some things when a connection to the database is made). Everything works just as it should do. But here comes the problem. Another developer reported to me that there is something wrong because he is getting 'undefined' every time he tries to call request.object.get('KEY') in CloudCode. This developer uses the exact same codebase as I do. So I decided to have a look at it. While with my Parse account, every application works fine (even newly created ones), with the Parse account of
