Hello Community,

I need some guidance to help me understand how I can setup Data Action such that I receive a set of JSON result as String in Architect, which I can then convert back to JSON and use.

My results look something like this;

{
  "result": {
    "resultSummary": {
      "totalMatches": 2,
      "complateMatches": 2,
      "incompleteMatches": 0
    },
    "persons": [
      {
        "firstName": "xyz",
        "lastName": "abc",
        "contactDetails": [
          {
            "phoneNumber": "1234567890",
            "countryCode": "44",
            "phoneType": "mobile",
            "contactState": "primary"
          },
          {
            "phoneNumber": "9876543210",
            "countryCode": "44",
            "phoneType": "mobile",
            "contactState": "secondary"
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Based on the above I am not able to setup Data Action contact or successTemplate to return the whole of "persons" array structure as an string output. I tried various options but can't seem to get it working. Maybe as there are nested arrays in the results, it has an issue, not sure.

Any guidance would be really appreciated.

Regards

Take a look at the Resource Center article on Velocity Macros  and read up on esc.jsonEncode

You can escape the JSON response output from the data action then unescape the JSON in Architect and use it there

Thanks George. Yes I had already check the resource and tried esc.jsonEncode but does not work. Maybe I am missing something.

My output contract looks like;

Probably because the $.results contains an array, it's not just a string

Hello,

According to the response example you have posted, $.results is not the right path. Your structure is named "result".

And as you are trying to retrieve the persons array, you could use this path: $.result.persons

Your response contract should be something like this:
