How to create multiple button in hero card from an array (response from external api)

[tushaar9027]

Hi All,

If i hard code the button values like this it works

[HeroCard
title = BotFramework Hero Card
subtitle = Microsoft Bot Framework
text = Build and connect intelligent bots to interact with your users naturally wherever they are, from text/sms to Skype, Slack, Office 365 mail and other popular services.
image = https://sec.ch9.ms/ch9/7ff5/e07cfef0-aa3b-40bb-9baa-7c9ef8ff7ff5/buildreactionbotframework_960.jpg
buttons = SAP|Windows|Veeva
]

But the API is giving the Array of object and when i use join function on iterable it gives me string which doesn't work properly in buttons field
Output of join

buttons = "SAP|Windows|Veeva"

does anybody know or has any idea how to achieve this ?

herocardTemplate(image) [HeroCard buttons=${foreach(image, im,cardActionTemplate('messageBack', im.displayText,"{"msgbck": "" + im.qnaid+ ""}"))} ]

cardActionTemplate( type, title, value) [CardAction type = ${if(type == null, 'messageBack', type)} Value = ${value} Text = ${title} Title = ${title} displayText = ${title} ]

heroCards(response) -${herocardTemplate(response)}

Using the above code snippet was able to add multiple buttons on a single HeroCard., here image is an array of json objects. Hope this helps in this case.
