How to delete a parameter inside an object?

Question

I've take a look for some answers about this but any worked here.

I have this object:

[ { transactionId: 'oapcfgajnasdasddmamdgogjilkjga.AO-J1Oyho4K_fgrzggggggasdasdasdykGfBYG4',
    orderId: undefined,
    productId: 'casdasd',
    purchaseDate: 1asd4831asdasd2080asd5241,
    quantity: 1,
    expirationDate: '14asdggg8g1' } ]

I need to delete the orderId parameter. I tried this two options of code but did not work.

one:

 var index = productsList.indexOf("orderId");
        productsList.splice(index, 1);

two:

           for(var i=0 ; i<productsList.length; i++)
{
    if(productsList[i].value=='orderId')
        productsList.splice(i);
}

Any idea?

the difference here I think is the [ ] characters... do you know how to avoid them? @DontVoteMeDown, Musa — arnoldssss, Jan 02 '17 at 16:26

it would be delete productList.orderId right? let me test – arnoldssss Jan 02 '17 at 16:14
@arnoldssss Exactly, it will remove the property from productList object – Andrés Andrade Jan 02 '17 at 16:15
Hi andres.. I think that did not work... the parameter still has that value – arnoldssss Jan 02 '17 at 16:24
I think that is because of this [] – arnoldssss Jan 02 '17 at 16:24
First you need to find your object in the array. Assuming that your object is in the position 0 of the array and productList your object: `var productsList = productsListArray[0]; delete productsList.orderId` – Andrés Andrade Jan 02 '17 at 16:32
