@manohar You can use the map Array function:

$array.map(x => Math.abs(x))

Hi @rohithmadhavan. thanks for that.

I actually should have added my array that I want to convert. how can I apply yours to below one?

jsonPath($, “$[‘invoice-charges’][*].total”)

Thanks

Assuming jsonPath($, “$[‘invoice-charges’][*].total”) returns an array:

jsonPath($, “$[‘invoice-charges’][*].total”).map(x => Math.abs(x))
