JSON Parser output to CSV file

[victor]

Hello there,

I am getting a response from an API then I passed it through the JSON Parser and it got something as below. You will see that I have items/product that I would like to have in separated rows in a CSV file. I tried with a FOR EACH loop using products array, but it does not iterate, the input is empty, but I am taking the datapill from the JSON parser, what am I missing?

Thanks

Based on the sample, product is an object and items is an array. You need to iterate on items.

Hello Gary,

thanks for your reply.  I agree but it doesnt show me item as datapill, only products.

I took another look and this is very interesting! I can't get the example you provided to work in the JSON parser as is. 

I have to remove this line:

"required": ["products"]

I guess the one-dimensional array is throwing off the parser. 

Once this is removed, I can access the items data pill without a problem.

Give this a shot, hopefully it will work.

Hello Gary,

I played with the JSON schema and finally the datapill showed for items, from there, the loop was going throughout all items and then I append the record to the CSV file inside the loop, I tried to accumulate to a list inside the loop  and outside the loop to append the list to the CSV, but it didn't work.

Thanks for your help
