Hi all,

I’m new at working with Make and I could really need your help!  
From a webhook, I receive a Collection containing an Array (see Screenshot):  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/b/3/b3d98db7ca0d23f2adb012c31027abb2607c8f66.png)

My goal is to transform the array-output, so that I have one string in this format: “value1”,“value2”,“valueN”  
Every value has to be in quotation marks and they are comma separated

I tried to set a variable and transform the previous output. Here is the configuration:  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/5/d/5dc5846f94d9c3a4bed76a67dc43d136a8a4b2ee.png)

The output is:  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/d/5/d589b5a12da455c128585b5984b6f634b6ce5d4a.png)

It’s close, but I need to have it like this: “owner”, “renter”

I would really appreciate any help I can get on this.

Best regards,  
David

Edit:  
I just found out that it can also be in an Array-Format. Just like this:  
[“owner”, “renter”]

With the toString Function  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/8/6/864e6da4fca696a8509249baf7ef0b295b83561e.png)

I get this output:  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/make/original/3X/7/7/77d30e083837727dfa6dcb528d47236a6060afa7.png)

Now I need to transform [owner,renter) into [“owner”,“renter”].

I hope someone can help.

Hi @david_schkalej,

You can use an Iterator on your Values array, followed by a Text Aggregator.  
For the Text Aggregator, use “Other” for Row separator, a comma as the Separator, and quotes around your value in the Text box, something like this:
