Trying to create line items for a Zapier Table and failing miserably


I am trying to create a table using api data fetched via code.

 

the data is being fetched and coming back to me perfectly, example here:

 

but then i discover in the next step that it is actually comma seperated lines of data, example here:

 

so, I figure I will line item all of it, which I do here:

 

which gives me the output here:

 

which is great, exatly what I want

but when I got to put into a zapier table, I get this:

 

what am I doing wrong?

my end goal is to have these properties populate into my custom properties module in zoho crm, I have been working on this for days and nothing works.

Hi @JustJace 

Good question.

Instead try this Zap action: Looping - Create Loop from Line Items

https://zapier.com/apps/looping/help

NOTE: You shouldn’t need the Formatter step since the data is already returned as line items.

Hi @Troy Tessalone ,

 

From my understanding, she has multiple elements as line items. While zapier doesn’t allow nest looping, how can we create multiple entries in Zapier tables with an array of data?

@Vic Tran 

The data returned is already formatted as arrays.

So the Formatter > Utilities step may be redundant.

Did you try using the Looping app?
