How to Assign an Object Key as an ID Value in JavaScript Objects
When working with JavaScript objects, you might find the need to assign the key of each object as a value within that same object. This can be useful for many applications, such as tagging data with a unique identifier, making it easier to access or reference later. In this post, we'll walk through a straightforward method to accomplish just that.
The Problem
Consider you have a JavaScript object structured like this:

In this scenario, you want to add an id attribute to each nested object using the corresponding key from the parent object. The expected outcome should resemble the following structure:

The Solution
To achieve this, you can use the forEach method combined with Object.keys(). This allows you to iterate through the keys of the main object and add a new property (id in this case) to each nested object.
Step-by-Step Approach
Initialize Your Data: Start with the given JavaScript object.
Iterate Over Object Keys: Utilize Object.keys() to get an array of keys, and then use forEach() to go through these keys.
Add the ID Property: For each key, assign the key as the ID value in its corresponding nested object.
Implementation
Here’s how you can implement this solution in code:

Explanation of the Code
Object.keys(data) retrieves all the keys from the data object (which are "xx2b" and "QQDa").
forEach(k => data[k].id = k) iterates over each key k:
data[k].id = k sets the id property of each nested object to the corresponding key.
Conclusion
By following this simple method, you can efficiently assign each Object Key as an ID Value within the objects in JavaScript. This technique not only improves the organization of your data but also enhances its accessibility in your applications.
Feel free to try this solution in your own JavaScript projects, and see how easily you can manage object properties and values!
