Hey 👋,  
i want to change my payload[...][0] and payload[...][1]

0 == articlenumber  
1 == stock

I would like to attach an image here, but somehow the upload is not working right now

````auto
{"_msgid":"01cf032528f70f17","payload":[["4011231255158","500"],["4038898600503","1"],["4011231254991","1"],["4058794457551","1"],["4058794457551","3"],["4038898600508","1"],["123","2"]],"topic":""}```

I am not entirely sure what your question is.

Small tip: if you are looking for data transformations, provide the input and the expected payload output (as node-red should produce it).

I assume you want your array to be converted to (?) :

You can use a change node, set it to a jsonata expression:

```auto
payload.{
   "articlenumber": $[0],
   "stock": $[1] 
}

```
