    Hello arvindnsn,

    You can filter the array that comes out from the Gate Snap using the following expression:

    $input0.filter(x => x.hasPath("Name")).length > 0

    Based on the result of this, if no element has Name field it will return false, otherwise it will return true.

    Attached below is a sample pipeline that you can review.

    Please let me know if this helps you.

    Regards,

    Aleksandar.
