If the array of objects has more than one element, then Zapier presents all values for the property in those objects as an array. 

You could try using JSON.parse() or JSON.stringify() to re-format. 
Or adding an additional code block that reformats everything after it’s returned.

      children:[

        { key: 'uuid', required: true, label: 'cust_uuid' },

        { key: 'brand', label: 'Brand' },

        { key: "category",required: true ,label: 'category'},  //category field

        { key: 'image', required: true, label: 'image' },
