Hi,

Would someone be able to find a simple solution to join array values into a single string?

I have an output data that looks like this:

[
  {
    "FirstName": "Peter"
  },
  {
    "FirstName": "James"
  }
]

I am trying to get the output of it that would say

Peter and James

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Hello,

I think you are trying to do this using Power Automate.

If this is the case, then you can use the join function.

Use this expression in a Compose or any text field

join(body('Select'), ' and ')

🔸 Replace Select With the name of your Select action that extracts the FirstName values.

Example Flow Snippet:

Select → Extract FirstName

{ "From": your array, "Map": { "": item()['FirstName'] } }

Compose (or similar) → Use:

join(body('Select'), ' and ')

Output: Peter and James
