=== Produce a custom JSON including nested arrays
You can create your own custom json structure with a javascript similar to this one.
For this example you need to create two input fields `short_filename` and `myField1` i.e. by using a data grid transform.

json.sourceProperties = {};
json.sourceProperties.properties = [];

json.filename = short_filename;
json.sourceCategory = "CategoryABC";

json.sourceProperties.properties.push({"key": "exampleArr", "values": [1000]})
json.sourceProperties.properties.push({"key": "exampleString", "values": "Some Testingtext"})
json.sourceProperties.properties.push({"key": "exampleUsingInputField", "values": myField1})

var myBodyJson = JSON.stringify(json);
