I am trying to build a Powershell array containing a single hashtable.
$params = @{
"name" = "bob"
"age" = "30"
}
$params | ConvertTo-Json
current output:
{
"age": "30",
"name": "bob"
}
Desired output:
[
{
"age": "30",
"name": "bob"
}
]
Try it this way:
$params = @{
"name" = "bob"
"age" = "30"
}
ConvertTo-Json @($params)
The @() syntax makes it an array.
You have to give the ConvertTo-Json cmdlet the input as a parameter, because the pipeline will automatically "unroll" the array and you'll be right back where you started.
