Data Pills in Flow Designer below Array.Object cannot be used (grayed out)

I am working on JIRA Spoke connection in Flow Designer, I am using pre-prepared inputs from JIRA Spoke application and I have noticed, that I can't use some data pills from the picker. I can't use anything under Array.Object. find_real_file.png

For example I would like to use "To String" in simple "If" condition, but I can't. Is there any way to fix that or some workaround?

Thanks Everyone,

Milan

Hi Milan,

As you noted, the greyed-out pills are part of an array.object. Since the array.object may contain many objects, the system doesn't yet know which object to reference for the greyed-out pills.

To use the greyed-out pills, you'll need to use logic that can iterate through the array.object.

For example, use For Each logic, and add 'For each {item}'. Then the pills under 'Item' should be available for use within the For Each.

  1. For each {item}
    1. Log: {to string}

Hello Brian,

 

thank you for the explanation, I get it now.

I must be doing something wrong because even in my for loop in the flow the results of the action are still greyed out.
