Is there a way to include a for loop item within another variable call? For example, below I have a for loop, looping over the rows in a HubDB table. Inside, I have another for loop, looping over items in an array.

Inside that, there’s a paragraph, where I’d like to echo out the row’s value for the column labeled “column\_1” (example for during the first iteration of the loop).

Right now, {{ row.item }} is looking for a column called “item” instead of pulling “item” from the for loop. How can I fix this?

```auto
{% set exampleArray = ['column_1', 'column_2'] %}

{% for row in hubdb_table_rows(dynamic_page_hubdb_table_id) %}
 {% for item in exampleArray %}
 <p>{{ item }}: {{ row.item }}</p>
 {% endfor %}
{% endfor %}

```

@kaitlyn - I haven’t tested this but can you try row[item]
