Hi,

I have an HTTP request where I'm receiving CSV data and I'd like to format that data so that it fits into the json body of a message I'd like to send with Slack.

Response body set as string variable:

I'm trying to fit each row of the response into this portion of the json for a formatted message.

"fields": [
{
"title": "Public IP Space - Daily",
"value": "2019-02-09 10:00:04",
"short": false
},
{
"title": "DMZ Servers - Daily",
"value": "2019-02-09 11:30:10",
"short": false
},
{
"title": "Cisco Network Devices - Daily",
"value": "2019-02-09 11:30:10",
"short": false
}
],

I will not know the number of lines this response will have. It can be 0-7ish at any given time. I've tried the method on this post but its not working the way I need it too where each line gets its own hash table. Any thoughts on how to do this in flow?

Hi!

You can use Parse CSV action from Plumsail Documents connector. It allows you to convert CSV into an array and variables for each column. Please read this article demonstrating how it works.
