What are you trying to achieve?
I am trying to extract a value from an array with the desired output of “1718290069725” using the map function. I want to set it as a variable so it can be used in future steps, but I just cannot make it work. Please can someone help?
The item is inside an array and collection 2. This is the mapping function I’ve tried to create:
{{map(1.payload.custom_fields; “id”; “date_created”; 1718290069725)}}
I’ve attached a copy of the JSON and screenshots of the mapping variable I am trying to create.
To confirm I am trying to capture 1718290069725 and set it as a variable so that I can use it in future steps.
Really appreciate your help! Thank you.
Steps taken so far
I have already been through Make tutorial and other tutorials here in the forum without success! Have tried various attempts but it’s always coming back empty or with a different variable.

Welcome to the Make community!
The date_created value of 1718290069725 would change everytime the scenario runs with different data, so you can’t map the date.
For your current mapping,
{{map(1.payload.custom_fields; “id”; “date_created”; 1718290069725)}}
This means: Get the id where date_created is equal to exactly 1718290069725
Perhaps you want to map the name instead?
{{map(1.payload.custom_fields; “date_created”; “name”; "ChatGPT Request")}}
Then, the result will be an array. To get the value from the array, you can use the built-in function first.
