Creating an array with individual numbers from a string

How To
1

I am trying to convert a string “35,34,33” into an array of numbers to add a contact to certain lists in my email-marketing-service.

I’m using the split-function to split the string into an array (works perfectly fine) but it seems like the separate items are then strings and not numbers.

At least I get the error: listIds/0 should be type number (invalid_parameter).

Every combination of split, parseNumber, map, etc. I’ve tried so far doesn’t work.

Is there a way to convert a string like “35,34,33” into an array of individual numbers?

Thanks a lot in advance and all the best,
Yannic

Welcome to the Make community!

You can try to accomplish this with the Parse JSON module trick:

e.g.:

{"number_array":[
  {{ join(split("35,34,33"; ","); ",") }}
]}

Paste this into a Parse JSON module.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
