I need the value of the location. If I parse this, I get an error saying the input is an array and should be an object

Re: Parse an Array?

Hello @MaryT0905 ,

it's an array, therefore, you must process it as an array first = add 'Apply to each' to loop through all the items and then extract the "locations".

Or if it's always only a single item, you can use the first(..) expression to process the array and extract the value, e.g.

first(<the array>)?['locations']

Re: Parse an Array?

@MaryT0905 ,

Please try passing the entire Array in the 'Generate from sample' in the Parse JSON action which will produce the JSON in the form:

{

    "type": "array",

    "items": {

        "type": "object",

        "properties": {

            "locations": {

                "type": "string"

            }

        },

        "required": [

            "locations"

        ]

    }

}

The location can be parsed as shown in the above flow.

Thanks and Regards,
