    hello Darwood 

     

    I think you have done most of the hard work to get the authentication and connection done

     

    Now for Web Activity Output Handling
    • Use a Set Variable activity to capture the Web Activity response
    • Configure the variable to store the complete JSON output


    Create Copy Data Activity Setup
    • Create a dummy source query using a Fabric Datawarehouse connection
    • Use the “Additional Columns” section in the source to define your output schema
    • Configure the destination as the Lakehouse Files section
    • Map the fields from your variable to the destination columns

ok so I'm almost there....

I have created a dummy query with additional columns and dynamic data and I can get the id value for the first record using a value of

@variables('devicesJson')[0].id

However I want to bring across the values for every single record in the output. I can obviously change the 0 to a different number to get a particular record but I want them all. How would I do this please?
