Hi Moerani,

there are two solutions for your problem. Column “kategorie” in your output schema is string and therefore you can add only simple string into so in case you want to have it as string you have put in value the following: “categories[0]” without “inputData”.

In case you would like to return whole array you will need to change the data type for column “kategorie” in output schema to JSOn and then you will put into value “categories”.

I hope this helps.
