Forming API Query from a table

Hi,

 

I'm trying to generate an API query which takes multiple webids as input from table values.

 

If I directly type the query as below I get the response:

The Query works as below, passing each webid seperately.

prabhat_m_1-1666388966929.png

 

However, If I pass the webids from a table value (Custom Invoke using Json.Document(Web.Content("https:/apiserver.com/piwebapi/streamsets/value",[Query=[webid={ Column1}]])), the URL is getting passed with only webid as whole

How to make this work so that all the value from the Coloumn can be passed in the query and it considers as seperate WebIds.

Thank Amit.

I'm using the same to form tables where cow from the example is webid.

I am trying to pass multiple query parameter for ex: Query=[q="cow","goat","dog"] which workis in the API that I'm using if I harcode it. It makes propoer query as api?q=cow&q=goat&q=dog and goes through.

 

However if I pass "Cow","goat","dog" from a coloum in a table, it is not working and the query becomes api?q="cow","goat","dog" which is incorrect format
