how can i format my http output from

 

[
  {
    "project": "prj1",
    "projectContats": "test@company.com",
    "projectMobiles": "+0000000,+11111",
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 1"
 
    
  };
 
  {
    "project": "prj2",
    "projectContats": "test2@company.com",
    "projectMobiles": "+0000000,+11111",
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 2"
 
    
  };
 
to
 
[
  {
    "project": "prj1",
    "projectContats": ["test@company.com"],
    "projectMobiles": ["+0000000,+11111"],
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 1"
 
    
  };
 
  {
    "project": "prj2",
    "projectContats": ["test2@company.com"],
    "projectMobiles": ["+0000000,+11111",]
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 2"
 
    
  };
]
 
using split under for each loop is not converting projectMobiles to array. 
Please say what is wrong here

    @JainReshma can't you just add square brackets at the start and end of string ? did you try this ?

    You need to replace the ";" with a comma between the two records and remove the final ";" to get valid JSON.  I put this into an Object variable and was able to then use a ParseJSON action to turn it into an array for further actions (using this same text to generate the schema from sample).

     

    [
    {
    "project": "prj1",
    "projectContats": "test@company.com",
    "projectMobiles": "+0000000,+11111",
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 1"


    },

    {
    "project": "prj2",
    "projectContats": "test2@company.com",
    "projectMobiles": "+0000000,+11111",
    "site": "site1",
    "siteAddress": "address 2"
    }]
