> @Mark, Thanks for your response. I got it working now! The issue is the 'get object from JSON' block will not connect to the 'for each item j in list' block as depicted here: [Not%20Connecting] However if I save the 'get object from JSON - response' block in a list variable 1st, I am then able to connect the variable to the 'for each item j in list' block. Glad to have this working, and I’ve added my final solution below. Thanks, Darren The following shows how to loop through a JSON List…

And I get the following output on my app. Basically no values pop up in the listviewer.
