i want to split the string from \n\n and converted it into json object in Business Rule script

"VM to be provisioned for which region? = APAC\n\nLease Type = Temporary\n\nStart = 2021-04-07 14:53:17\n\nEnd = 2021-06-06 14:53:19\n\nSize = Basic A0 | 1 Core | 768 MB\n\nUsed for = Development\n\nBusiness purpose = test\n\n"

try this

Script:

var str = "VM to be provisioned for which region? = APAC\n\nLease Type = Temporary\n\nStart = 2021-04-07 14:53:17\n\nEnd = 2021-06-06 14:53:19\n\nSize = Basic A0 | 1 Core | 768 MB\n\nUsed for = Development\n\nBusiness purpose = test\n\n";

var arr = str.split('\n\n');

var obj = {};

for(var i=0;i<arr.length;i++){

var str1 = arr[i];

if(str1){
var arr1 = str1.split('=');

var key = arr1[0].trim();
var value = arr1[1].trim();

obj[key] = value;

}
}

gs.info(JSON.stringify(obj));

Output:

[0:00:00.065] Script completed in scope global: script

Script execution history and recovery available here

*** Script: {"VM to be provisioned for which region?":"APAC","Lease Type":"Temporary","Start":"2021-04-07 14:53:17","End":"2021-06-06 14:53:19","Size":"Basic A0 | 1 Core | 768 MB","Used for":"Development","Business purpose":"test"}

Then ensure the loop runs only till 3 and not complete length

for(var i=0;i<3;i++){
