What am I supposed to put in the "Array of column values to change" for monday.com "Creating an item"?

What is the format that we are supposed to be putting in here? I’ve tried

[
{
“column_id”:“status8”,
“value”:{
“label”:“{{40.mappable_column_values.status57.text}}”
}
},{
“column_id”:“text45”,
“value”:“{{40.mappable_column_values.text84}}”
}
]

(no space in between, i just put space here for formatting)

and i’ve also tried

[
{
“column_id”:“status8”,
“value”:{
“label”:{{40.mappable_column_values.status57.text}}
}
},{
“column_id”:“text45”,
“value”:{{40.mappable_column_values.text84}}
}
]

no quotation marks for the value.

Both gave me an error

Edit: Please don’t tell me to turn off map, I really want to use this method as much as possible, because I think this will help me assign multiple people and I want to learn how it is supposed to look like

Hi @fazeela,

I was already answering in my mind “turn of the map”… :smiley: but then I saw your Edit.. :smiley:

It depends on the setup of your scenario in general. If you have multiple bundles that feed into this module, you might use an “Array Aggregator” with the target structure being this array. Alternatively, you use the JSON Aggregator and create a data structure which mimic the setup you have.
The text you put in is evaluated as text and because it needs an array that won’t work :confused:

Best,
Richard

Hi @fazeela
Are you mapping the people column from another column on the same or different board? If so, and that source column contains an array of users, you can directly map that array into the person column in Monday.com. This will allow the scenario to handle any number of people dynamically—whether it’s 1, 2, 3, or more—without needing to define them individually.
