union arrary from child flow as a text

(0) ShareShare

i have a child flow which takes text input from an array:

and then outputs as a text:

Now when it outputs as text it places the "\n" and "\" escape characters. I don't want these escape characters but rather the actual array format.

 

When consuming the output from the child flow with the escape characters:

Append to array variable looks fine:

but when doing union, it again brings the escape characters. I don't want the escape characters but rather the unioned array.

    Hi @MoshinK786 

     

    Pls use json() function to convert string to json object.

     

    You may share me the sample input text, I will show how you can apply json function on the input.

     

     

     

    If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.
