I have the above data, as you can see some don't have likes, some don't have clicks element, so I want to check whether they exist in the arrays or not and print as false for the particular element which does not exist in the array.

Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty()

You can check with the method hasOwnProperty() if the object has the key or not.

const obj = [{
    date: "2021-1-9",
    views: 32109,
    clicks: 279,
    likes: 4391
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-10",
    views: 127568,
    clicks: 691,
    likes: 8471
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-11",
    views: 17304,
    clicks: 94,
    likes: 764
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-12",
    views: 11008,
    clicks: 49,
    likes: 421
  },

  {
    date: "2021-1-9",
    views: 32109,
    clicks: 279
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-10",
    views: 127568,
    clicks: 69
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-11",
    views: 17304,
    clicks: 94
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-12",
    views: 11008,
    clicks: 49
  },

  {
    date: "2021-1-9",
    views: 32109,
    likes: 4391
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-10",
    views: 127568,
    likes: 8471
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-11",
    views: 17304,
    likes: 764
  },
  {
    date: "2021-1-12",
    views: 11008,
    likes: 421
  }
]

let propToLookFor = "likes";

obj.forEach((x) => {
      if (x.hasOwnProperty(propToLookFor)) {
          console.log("True");
        }else{
        console.log("False");
        }
      })
