Hi All,

Trying to see if I am defining the structure wrong or if I need to do postprocessing to remove these [ ] when there is only 1 element in a record from my JSON file.  The below structure

structure = [
       
    {ID:'PO850',MIN:1,MAX:1,
    QUERIES:{
'frompartner': get_frompartner,
        'topartner':    get_topartner,
        },
    LEVEL:[
    {ID:"from_partner",MIN:1,MAX:1},
    ]},
    ]

is producing this

{
    "PO850": {
        "po_date": "10/23/2024",
        "from_partner": [
            {
                "city": "TESTCITY",
                "name": "TEST",
                "zip": "11111",
                "address1": "2365 Ave",
                "state": "XX",
                "id": "999999999"
            }
        ]
    }
}

even though from_partner is only MIN/MAX of 1, it puts it in a list [ ].  

Is there a way to stop this?

Can I have just multiple roots or there has to be only one, since PO850 seems to place things in { } only and not a list [ ]?

Thanks

No problem, I was able to write a little function to remove them in a communication script.  I have another post that I am trying to understand how to write the new file out from the communication script to the channel path.
