Use array of arrays in repeating group

Hi all,

I’m trying to display some data from an API call in a repeating group. In a workflow Run Javascript element I’m building an array of arrays like the one below:

[
    ["header 1", "header 2", "header 3"],
    ["row 1 col 1 value", "row 1 col 2 value", "row 1 col 3 value"],
    ["row 2 col 1 value", "row 2 col 2 value", "row 2 col 3 value"],
    ...
]

I want to use this data structure in the repeating group, but I don’t know how to access that data in the RG itself. I’ve tried using the JSON machine plugin to store the data structure but I can’t seem to read its content properly and custom states don’t allow complex data structures. What’s the best way to approach this?

Thank you in advance.

You’ll have to check if you are providing the right format to JSON machine. That’s valid JSON you got there, but some plugins might not recognise it because of how they are coded.
