Integration Hub help please - I want to sent nested data in an array outbound payload

[MS12]

I'm using json parser step to compile my outbound data.

It should look something like this.

"contacts": [
            "contact": {
                "contact_name": "",
                "contact_id": "",
                "contact_email": "",
                "contact_responsibility": ""
            },
            "contact": {
                "contact_name": "",
                "contact_id": "",
                "contact_email": "",
                "contact_responsibility": ""
            }
        ],

This should sent all the contacts in an account. I'm very new to json builder step and trying to lookup for examples and I'm not finding any good articles on this specific issue.

If you can guide me in the right direction, that would be great.

Hi @MS12 

Try like below:

Hope this helps

What you are showing above is the input section. That has type array.object.

But if you add a row to json builder flow object, this is not a data type but Array is.

So your answer gave me an idea. I added an input of Array.object and json builder entry of array type and I am able to pick data pill for the contacts object from input and map it to this json field.

Glad my response helped you in some way.

@MS12 

you can use script step and form the JSON and then use that in your next step.

If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.
