Hi there!

I have data on my HubSpot that, even when the data type is number, it is not passed to another platform as an integer but as a JSON string instead. For example: “subscription\_lifetime\_absolute\_days”: “1”. How can I ensure the data is passed as an integer, as the next platform cannot perform data transformation?

Thank you.

Hi @alif-12 , are you able to parse the number into integer when passing it to the JSON body? If you are in HubL then it can be as easy as “youVar|int” or in JavaScript “parseInt(yourVar);”
