Hi [~markap14] , 

I was trying to reproduce the error. Could you please let me know the way you defined the schema. For the updateRecord , I have used the property "Replacement Value Strategy" and with the property value "Literal Value" . I was able to successfully update the field(/numbers[1]) to 8 for my flowfile.

 

Regards,

Karthik

>   "id" : 3,
>   "numbers" : [1, 2, 3]
> }
> {code}
> I tried using UpdateRecord with a property name of "/numbers[1]" and a literal value of "8" but
> the data was not modified. It appears to be due to the fact that the ArrayIndexFieldValue class uses the following code:
> {code}
>     @Override
>     public void updateValue(final Object newValue) {
>         getParentRecord().get().setArrayValue(getField().getFieldName(), getArrayIndex(), newValue);
>     }
> {code}
> But the field was constructed using a field name of "numbers[1]" instead of "numbers".
