Hi, I've been banging my head on this without much success. The output of my payload will be sent to whatsapp. But it lists everything with a comma and I'd like a carriage return. [image] [{"id":"c2ca69f3dbe80770","type":"api-call-service","z":"5c26fb4772d3c08c","name":"Whatsapp","server":"a0ee…

I think the HA node allows JSONata so you could try {"message": $join($$.payload.attributes.entities, "\n")} or in a change node before Set msg.payload.attributes.entities To JSONata expression $join($$.payload.attributes.entities, "\n")

Hi, thanks, just tested. this first one results in empty topic {"message": $join($$.payload.attributes.entities, "\n")} the tester in nodered returns Invalid example JSON message: SyntaxError: Unexpected token $ in JSON at position 12 But... the second one worked :slight_smile: with a change…
