json output... almost there. i need arrays and it's creating objects

[Anonymous]

newbie to TOS (5.3) familiar with json, i think the json TOS is producing is "correct", it's just my endpoint wants arrays not objects
big picture... i'm trying to read a csv, convert each record to json and call a rest api to insert. I want this...
,
"FirstName": ,
"LastName":
},
"xref":
}
]
I'm getting this
{
"type":"conf/nodeTypes/Person",
"attributes": {
"Name": {
"type":"conf/nodeTypes/Person/attributes/Name",
"value":"DavidCole"
},
"FirstName": {
"type":"conf/nodeTypes/Person/attributes/FirstName",
"value":"David"
},
"LastName": {
"type":"conf/nodeTypes/Person/attributes/LastName",
"value":"Cole"
}
},
"xref": {
"type":"conf/sources/IMD",
"value":"1",
"url":" www.domainName.com"
}
}
Problems...
1. JSON is output as objects {...} not Arrays (see Name, FirstName, etc.) maybe technically that's ok, it's valid JSON, but my endpoint wants Arrays.
2. I'm not getting the surrounding brackets... I was able to use TFileOutputJSON to add brackets but
A. I don't want to go to a file
B. It does all my rows not one at a time
I tried a bunch of things but can't force an array. I posted the job stream, using viewers for debug, not very interesting.
any suggestion would be welcomed.
BTW... if someone had an example of process a record POST to REST, read response, process next... that would be helpful, i'll post a separate thread as well.
thanks for reading.
