Hi Nikkheel,

You can use simple built in Appian function.

difference({"india", "usa", "Australi"}, {"india", "usa", "Australia","uk"})

a!localVariables(
  local!checkExcelItemsInRefTable: a!forEach(
    items: ri!excelArray,
    expression: contains(
      {
        ri!refTablearray
      },
      fv!item
    )
  ),
  /*Match each index of array to return a boolean array if match was found or not*/
  local!notFoundIndexes: wherecontains(
    false,
    local!checkExcelItemsInRefTable
  ),
  /*Indexes from excel array where the match wasn't found*/
  concat(
    joinarray(
      index(
        ri!excelArray,
        {
          local!notFoundIndexes
        },
        {}
      ),
      ", "
    ),
    " not found in reference table"
  )/*Returning the message with the values not found in reference table*/
  
)

Use a code like this to compare arrays and get the following result.

Hope it helps!
