Hi ​@BLife 

For us to have more info, post screenshots showing how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in EDIT mode with the field mappings visible.

In Zapier, this issue usually happens when the data sent to the "Looping by Zapier" step isn’t a proper array. To fix it, use a Formatter → Text → Split Text step before the loop to convert your payload into a list (e.g., split by comma or newline). This will ensure each item is processed individually in the loop and shows up correctly in your table.

Hey ​@BLife 👋

Just came across this and spotted you also reached out to our Support team about this but I couldn’t tell if this was resolved—were you able to get it sorted? If you did, would you be up for sharing what the solution was? This would be really useful for others in the community that might run into similar issues. 🙏

If it’s still not working, I’d be happy to lend a hand. Looking at the screenshots I’m not seeing the Formatter (Text > Split Text) action that you were going to try. and it looks as though the fields that were selected in the Looping action might not be line items, as they contain only a single value rather than multiple values. 

Can you share a screenshot showing the full output of the Webhooks action so we can take a closer look? Make sure to blur/remove any personal info (names, emails etc.) before sharing using a tool like Zappy.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
