Hi All - looking for help converting the example below input into the output dynamically as this will need to be done across a variety of fields. Any ideas? Thanks!

 

Input (1 field):

ColumnName1
[{'id': 123456, 'name': 'Example Name', 'parent_id': None, 'parent_department_external_id': None, 'child_ids': [], 'child_department_external_ids': [], 'external_id': ''}]

 

Output (7 fields):

idnameparent_idparent_department_external_idchild_idschild_department_external_idsexternal_id
123456Example NameNoneNone

Hi @alowe 

 

This looks like JSON can you provide sample data with more childs in the dictionary

'child_department_external_ids': []

 

Happy to help : )
