Hi, I am trying to use the web service function in a rule to deliver several elements of data. The function itself is working just fine but I can't seem to find a way to output just two elements from the result. I can isolate a single variable or the result as a string. Should I be looking at refining the result on the rule output or can I set the rule to populate two variables as the output? Perhaps I have mixed up sail and regular rule concepts. Hopefully someone can set me straight.
Thanks, James

Thanks Tim, that makes sense. I thought that if I drop the output to a text variable I could reference the content as if it was a dictionary but this isn't the case either as it appears to flatten the complex type returned from the web service into a string.
I will do as you suggest and write to a cat instead using the type! constructor.
Cheers, James
