+9I am utilizing the “Configurable list” widget in Jotform and list items are coming across to my Zap in a single field like so:
[{"Name":"Name One","Address":"123 some st.","Tenant Type":"financially responsible"},{"Name":"Name Two","Address":"453 some st. ","Tenant Type":"regular"}]
However, I need to reformat them to fit into this format:
Any ideas on how I can make this happen?

Hi
In your case, you should just be able to do a JSON.parse(); in a code step.
Probably should mention for anyone looking at this answer - the Input value would normally be the JotForm field from the trigger - I used the example text directly in my example.
----
The other challenge with JOTFORMS is when the data comes back in this format [“...”]|[“...”]
Notice the | symbol separating the values.
I needed to use a Regular Expression to extract the values, and then assign them to the RESULT object as I needed them.
let RE = new RegExp(/\[\"(\w{2,3})\"\]/, 'g'),
COMPLETED_STR = inputData.COMPLETED.toString(),
COMPLETED,
KEYS = ["A", "B"],
RESULT = {};
let i = 0;
while ((COMPLETED = RE.exec(COMPLETED_STR)) !== null) {
RESULT[KEYS[i++]] = COMPLETED[1];
}
output = RESULT;

+9Hello
I am facing the same challenges. Applied the solution proposed in this blog, including this code in the second activity:
let AL = JSON.parse (inputData.ALs)
output = AL
Unfortunately I am getting this error: “You must return a single object or array of objects”
Do you know, by chance what could be wrong?
Thanks in advance
