There are likely multiple ways to do this, but this is how I've done it in one script.
Variables
- Use a Do step and have it read a string variable that is defined as a parameter and split the values into a string array variable.
strTestNumberArray = strTestNumbers.split(",") - Use another Do step to loop trough the array
{
int i = 0;for (i = 0; i < strTestNumberArray.length; i++)
if (DNIS == strTestNumberArray[i])
{
strTestNumber = DNIS;
break;
}
} - Define the values in the string variable that you want in the array on the parameter on the application page as a comma separated string.

Have a look at this post, https://community.cisco.com/t5/contact-center/splitting-a-string-variable-in-uccx/td-p/2296746, it might help.

@Anthony Holloway Sharp eyes as always. I agree it does look like there is a semi-colon at the end of the expression.
@Nliya53887 Please update your expression to not have any characters after the last parenthesis to see if that corrects your problem.
...adding a few sample use cases with variables of type String - Array
1. Uses a 'switch' and loop to add individual elements to the array:
2. Uses a 'Set' statement with a '.split' string function to assign all elements to the array variable (then '.trim' String in a loop to remove extra spaces):
I will attach (attempt to attach...) the sample scripts zipped. You can use the 'step over' button in the editor control pane to evaluate how these work.
These are intended only as sample methods to help generate ideas on how to initialize and use an array in UCCX. I'm sure there are more methods to do this...
Hope this helps.

1) The entire JSON Path is a String, right? So, in order to slip the loop counter (iArrayElement) into the String, you need to do something called String Concatenation. In Java, that's as simple as using the plus sign (+) to combine things together.
E.g.,
"$.QueryContractsBySiteIDResult.Contracts[" + iArrayElement + "].CoveredManufacturers[" + iArrayElement + "]"
Also, if we saw the JSON document, there might be an easier way to get the data from it. Something doesn't seem quite right about this approach.
2) Like I just said in response to #1, there's got to be an easier way. If you simply ask the JSON parser for the array, the Editor will stuff the results in an Array for you, no extra work needed.
If you need to iterate over the array, you can do so with an iterator loop like so:
If you simply wanted to know if a certain item was in the array (contains), then you could do this trick with Java Lists:
I hope that helps you get where you need to be. ;)
