@kewaynes333  - I'm not sure what kind of object "messages" is but you can pass data back from the Notebook via the Exit Variable.

  • mssparkutils.notebook.exit(<value>)

It can be a simple string or a json/array value among other things. You should then be able to reference it in the set variable by doing:

 

  • @activity(<activity_name>).output.result.exitValue

If you send back a JSON object you can convert the string in the pipeline use @Json() and then reference values within the JSON object.

 

  • @Json(activity(<activity_name>).output.result.existValue).<property>
