Say I have the following need… Step = Program step in Tulip:

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/agilemfg/original/2X/7/725f15ed397aa7f616127c2a836e0767ccb590ee.png)

Right now there is only a mapping function available which would allow me to get a list of all values or a list of all config field names…

But what I need is a function the allows me to read the value of a specific record in the array…

In JSON this is how my object would look like…

```auto
{
  "Result of Connector query": [
    { "Config Field": "setting_1", "Value": "100" },
    { "Config Field": "setting_2", "Value": "Y" },
    { "Config Field": "setting_3", "Value": "TRUE" }
  ]
}

```

Addition: I should mention that the underlying goal is also to fetch the config parameters only once and not for each use-case individually again and again… the later could accomplished by sending individual connector queries to the table API.
