I see variable selector is released in workflow but it’s still not showing selector if element is array. I tried for changes array in identity attribute change trigger workflow and I do not see variable inside changes for selection. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sailpoint/original/1X/025c51d74eee7b1bc509df34de7e2fdc07a67b37.jpeg) ---

Variable selection for array elements is not supported at this time. Arrays introduce a challenge for variable selection because Workflows can’t determine the content of the array at design time, only at runtime. We are aware of this limitation, and will be looking into solutions to allow users to filter items out of an array that they are interested in. Until then, you can still [utilize JSONpath](https://developer.sailpoint.com/triggers/filtering_event_triggers.html) to select elements of an array based on conditional criteria. ---
