Found a way to kinda do it via REGEX_EXTRACT, but doesn't feel like the best way to do this.

You should be able to do breakdowns on arrays directly. E.g.

If your property has the array icon you can pick how you want the breakdown to work

And you can stack them too.

That breaks it down by each value of the key. For example, if I do this by Genre , I get a break down of all genre values. But I'd like to break it down by the key. In other words, I care about the number of times each key occurred and not about the values in each key:value pair. Any idea?

In this example, I am measuring the total events (occurrences) where max, min or not set is the key for the filter. Vs the values of those keys.

Vs the number of times buckets of values were selected

Thanks for that. Sorry Andrew S. I was travelling. In your case, do you have to change the datatype or does it arrive as a List like it does in your screenshot?

I did not have to change my datatype. It's how the list results present

Okay thanks. In my case the objects come in an array. I.e. there are many key:value pairs which is why this might not work for me. Have to look at how the data is sent. Thanks

Double check it was submitted as object lists and not just a string array. Check the icon next to the property name

Andrew S. still stuck on this a little. Do you mind sharing with me how exactly your list looks like? As in, the raw data. Mine looks like this and I suspect we have formatted it incorrectly.

Lists look like:

"guidedrec_choice_ids": [
      5670,
      5707,
      5734
    ],

and object lists look like:

"guidedrec_choices": [
      {
        "id": 5670,
        "text": "Red"
      },
      {
        "id": 5707,
        "text": "Rich and unctuous stew"
      },
      {
        "id": 5734,
        "text": "Floral"
      },
      {
        "id": 6960,
        "text": "Vanilla-flavoured"
      }
    ],

the guiderec_filters from your screenshot is coming from one of those lists? Thank you for posting this. Good for me too see 🙏

yes. I looked at it in "json" format in the version I pasted as text.
