Unable to use loop input or loop context in loop steps

I have a workflow where I am unable to reference the loop input or loop context and I am not sure why.

In the Loop Input I am passing an http request’s response body ($.hTTPRequest.body) and in the Loop Context I am passing an earlier get Identity call ($.getIdentity).

I expect to be able to reference anything from the HTTP Request response body and anything from the get identity call within actions taken inside my loop.

What I am experiencing is the variable values appear as empty. For instance, one of the steps inside my loop is an HTTP operation to patch the sources we are iterating over. I am sending the following body:

[
    {
        "op": "replace",
        "path": "/owner",
        "value": {
            "id": "{{$.loop.context.id}}",
            "type": "IDENTITY"
        }
    }
]

For this, the json during execution appears as:

"jsonPatchRequestBody": [
  {
      "op": "replace",
      "path": "/owner",
      "value": {
          "id": "",
          "type": "IDENTITY"
      }
  }
]

I know the context is getting loaded correctly because in the workflow execution I see the context appear as expected:

"attributes": {
            "displayName": "Loop",
            "input": {
                "context": {
                                  "id": "123456",
.
.
.
                           }
                      }

Is there anything I am missing? I previously had this working and am wondering if a recent patch caused this workflow bug.

Note: it should be noted that in addition to the variables resolving as empty, I also receive the following error msg:

"attributes": {
            "displayName": "Loop",
            "result": {
                "loopOutput": {
                    "failureItems": [
                        {
                            "errorMessage": "unexpected end of JSON input",
                            "payload": null
                        }
                    ],
                    "successfulItems": null
                }
            },
            "stepName": "loop",
            "task": "sp:loop:iterator"
        }

Hi @dominick-miller ,

Can you share the loop context value that’s being loaded during the workflow?

Thanks,
Shailee

Update: The issue is with using multiple loops in one workflow. I don’t think SailPoint supports this. My second loop was corrupt and there was nothing being done incorrectly. :smiley:
