I am trying to construct a Web API that queries a data entity and compares a field in that data entity with an array of values that I've stored in a local variable (created from another a!queryEntity). I've hardcoded the value in my first query so I know what results I should get in the second one. Both queries work individually, but I get this expression evaluation error when I combine them. Any suggestions on what I'm missing? I'm pretty sure that once I get this working, I'll also have to add something to account for null values in the first query....but that's another issue. See the attached file for the code.

Expression evaluation error at function a!queryEntity [line 33]: Cannot apply operator [IN] to field [checkid] when comparing to value [TypedValue[it=197,v={TypedValue[it=1,v=621],TypedValue[it=1,v=622],TypedValue[it=1,v=623]}]].

@sikhivahans - I actually tried several 'if' statements using that rule to check for null values and couldn't get them to work. I just tested this alternative and got the same expression error I was getting before. "Expression evaluation error at function a!toJson [line 63]: The value parameter of a!toJson() must not be null." I understand the logic here but it appears as if the a!toJson() function is different from others in that you can't have 'null' values. It must need a value even if it's '{0}' as in the version I previously uploaded. Thanks again for your help!
