"details.price_details" is itself nested, how to flatten it in output scheme? Thanks

Pls elaborate, in example above object property used for output, if you change it to object i.e. just "details" then output should be expandable tooltip so you have choice to output single properties by your choice or object as a whole

Hi Thank you for your response. Actually "details.price_details" is an object too eg details.price_details = { normal_price: 78, formated_price: "$78.00" } With the above output scheme I am getting undefined (in table format), but when I peek into the json data the data is there.

but shows up in the all fields

Hm, I not sure if its UI glitch or something to do with formatting. Just in case: https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/development/actor-definition/output-schema
