Split Out Error - this.getNodeParameter(...).split is not a function

[TheGlitch]

Describe the problem/error/question

Hello everyone, it’s only been a few hours since I discovered N8N, already installed and already discovering the tool, and of course the first questions

I’m trying to split out Basic JSON, but there’s no way I can make it work.

Am I missing something on this ?

Thank you !

What is the error message (if any)?

Tip for sharing information

Pasting your n8n workflow

---

Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

```
<your workflow>
```

That implies to any JSON output you would like to share with us.

The field to split out is just “topics”. No need to use an expression in this case.
