String to List Collector in Flow Designer

Hi All,

I am attempting to create a flow that will take a comma separated list of sys_ids and call a catalog item with that information. The list would be populated into a List Collector in the catalog item. I can't seem to figure out how to convert the comma separated list to a List Collector. When I drag the comma separated list data pill to the Submit Catalog Item Request it says "String" is now allowed.

 

My use case is I have a catalog item that takes a list of users and creates a record of an activity. If the form is filled out via the Service Center, the user can select multiple users. I want to add a "REST API - Async" trigger that can be called from an automated process.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Ben

@benjaminmetzler  - apologies for the back n forth, can you please try to change the output variable type to 'Records' and then select the table name 'sys_user'. I think it should work

 

Thanks!!

Nope. Updating to to a Records.sys_user results in "Records is not allowed here" message.
