Parsing reference data from input form screen

[Robin Hearne]

I have created an Input form screen with a Reference input which allows multiple selections and I'm having issues accessing the sys_ids of the selected records in my Query condition script.

The Input type for the Input record is 'Reference'.  The Type of the Data parameter is 'String.

When I log the input value to the system log it appears similar to the following:

[Ljava.lang.String;@690ecd97

From my research I believe that this means that it is an array of class java.lang.String but I have not been able to find any way to convert this into a regular array or indeed any other output that enables me to read the contents of the array.

I wonder if it's occurring because of the type mismatch between the Input and the Data parameter but there aren't any obvious alternatives.

Is any one able to tell me how to resolve this?

Thanks in advance.

@Robin Hearne 

can you try this?

var plan= input.maintenance_plan.toString();
gs.info('Robin: ' + plan);

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

I have tried .toString() previously but the output is as follows:

I have also tried JSON.stringify() with the same results.

Here's the section of the script where I'm trying to convert the results using different methods and logging the results:
