How to build dynamic JSON Body for http request?

Help Activities
1

Example

{
First name : abc
Last name : cde
Manager of : xxx
Member of : yyy
}

This is the sample JSON body . In this JSON body , either manager of or member of keys are only allowed. How to build a one dynamic JSON?

Eg : A can both member of and manager of keys
But whereas B can have only manager of key.

So for this scenario how to build one dynamic json to handle both ways.

Hi @Ragavi_Rajasekar

You can create dynamic JSON in below way:

{
  "First name": "abc",
  "Last name": "cde",
  "Roles": {
    "Manager of": ["xxx"],
    "Member of": ["yyy"]
  }
}

=> Entity A with both “Manager of” and “Member of” keys:

{
  "First name": "A",
  "Last name": "B",
  "Roles": {
    "Manager of": ["xxx"],
    "Member of": ["yyy", "zzz"]
  }
}

=> Entity B with only the “Manager of” key:

{
  "First name": "B",
  "Last name": "C",
  "Roles": {
    "Manager of": ["xxx"]
  }
}

Hope it helps!!

Hi @Ragavi_Rajasekar

May be you could try this way:

Assign activity:
  To: jsonString (String)
  Value: "{""first_name"": ""abc"",""last_name"": ""cde"",""roles"": {" +
            If(A_is_manager, """manager_of"": ""xxx""", "") +
            If(A_is_manager And A_is_member, ",", "") +
            If(A_is_member, """member_of"": ""yyy""", "") +
          "}}"

A_is_manager and A_is_member are variables representing whether the person is a manager or a member. Adjust the conditions and values based on your specific requirements. The resulting jsonString will contain the appropriate keys based on the conditions you set.
