I have an API module returning multiple operations.
And I am interested in consolidating a very specific field into a single variable that I want to use it later for my AI models so they can have context. Here is the field highlighted in red box that i want to consolidate across the operations returned by this module.
I know this is a scenario for aggregating but I tried to place an array aggregator and a text aggregator to get the field but it just gets me the very first field 47 times. I am sure there is a small change that can fix this situation but need help so I can solidify my understanding with aggregators.
I am new with Make so feel free to share your opinions on how i am approaching this.
You should be able to delete the Array Aggregator and just use the Text Aggregator.
Combining Bundles Using Aggregators
Every result (item/record) from trigger/iterator/list/search/match modules will output a bundle. This can result in multiple bundles, which then trigger multiple operations in future modules (one operation per bundle). To “combine” multiple bundles into a single variable, you’ll need to use an aggregator of some sort.
Aggregators are modules that accumulate multiple bundles into one single bundle. An example of a commonly-used aggregator module is the Array aggregator module. The next popular aggregator is the Text Aggregator which is very flexible and can apply to many use-cases like building of JSON, CSV, HTML.
You can find out more about the other types of aggregator modules here:
Question: Which is the best aggregator do you think you’ll need for your use-case?
Example
Here is an example of how your scenario could look like:
This is just an example. Your final solution may or may not look like this depending on your requirements and actual data.
For more information, see “Mapping with arrays” in the Help Centre. You should also do the Make Academy, which also covers the use of Iterators & Aggregators.

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