JSON OBJECTS in a POST HTTP request

[Tontonsam]

Describe the problem/error/question

I want to use an array of objects to post via an HTTP request to another system. but, the formatting of the object i get back is unusable.

am i doing something wrong?

Please share your workflow

i’m expecting something like this:
[
{
“Description”: “Consultancy”,
“UnitPriceExcl”: 63,
“Quantity”: 1
},
{
“Description”: “Consultancy”,
“UnitPriceExcl”: 64,
“Quantity”: 1
}
]

but getting when i call it:
[Array: [{“json”: {“Description”: “Consultancy”, “UnitPriceExcl”: 63, “Quantity”: 1}, “pairedItem”: {“item”: 0}},{“json”: {“Description”: “Consultancy”, “UnitPriceExcl”: 64, “Quantity”: 1}, “pairedItem”: {“item”: 1}}]]

any tips? am i calling it the wrong way?

@Tontonsam , the result you are getting is expected. What is missing is the aggregation of the items into an array. Here’s how this could be done.
