jsonCould someone explain why this simple example fails to parse a numeric array into json?
The exact same json turns valid if you add the values directly and not through the input array.
JSON string = { "Test": [1, 2, 3] }
Here is my blue print:
JSON From Aggregator.json (4.0 KB)
Hello @JDM_Devs,
What you’re seeing is the text representation of the array object, but the object itself within that text isn’t JSON that can be parsed.
You might consider building your JSON with a Text Aggregator instead.
Something like this (though I know it’s problematic if the text contains certain characters):
JSON From Aggregator (Text Agg).json (5.0 KB)
I am curious on others’ thoughts as well!
Welcome to the Make community!
You need to convert the array into a string. This is because ParseJSON expects the entire variable to be a string.
To convert an array into a string, usually you want to use the built-in function join
For more information, see the function documentation in the Help Center.
Here are some useful links and guides you can use to learn more on how to use the Make platform, apps, and app modules. I found these useful when I was learning Make, and hope they might benefit you too —

Ahh duh map() and join()!
Thanks. I tested the join but not properly it seems.
