            "color": "yellow",
        },
    ]
}

searchInJson

products[1].name

product[${number}].name (if the variable 'number' is set to 1 in the smartformform)

This results in the process variable 'favorite_offer' being set to 'Mangos'



Example:
In the example, we have a part of the process flow for IT-Hardware Request. ProcessVariableSetter actionhandler is added in the ‘forward request for approval' task node. Variable status from the smartform form is entered for the parameter name. The new value of the parameter name in the smartform form will be the 'forward request for approval’ which was set for the parameter value.
