Array outputs to Assign and Approval

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

I am trying to take the output of a select statement to then create an approval.  for some reason, the MAP field is showing as " " in the ouput.  I believe I need to remove this in order to create the approval "assign to".

 

output of select statement:

 

[
{
"": "test1@test.com"
},
{
"": "test2@test.com"
},
{
"": "test3@test.com"
},
{
"": "test4@test.com"
},
{
"": "test5@test.com"
}
]

 I believe I need to remove the "": to then join the email address in a compose statement.  However, I can't figure out how to only select the email values.

 

Help is very much appreciated.  I have been banging my head against a while trying to figure this out.  Obviously I am a novice as this seem like it should be easy.

    Hi @Kris31,

     

    Create Parse Json step

    Initialize variable array and select the values from the Json 

    @{items('Apply_to_each')?['']}

    Perhaps I am misunderstanding, but I am trying to remove the section that I circled in your output: " ":

    Hi @Kris31 ,

     

    This is the received response and you can't modify it directly so the provided example is a workaround to reformat it and store it at a new array then you can use this array same as the way you want.
