How to create an issue list with data returned by a web request?

Chris Carpenter

Using automation for Jiras lookupissues action, you can create a slack message, or update a field, or whatever with a nice neat list of issues like this:

{{#lookupIssues}}
<{{url}}|{{key}}> - {{summary}}
{{/}}


Thats awesome, but lookups are limited to 100 issues. I'm using automation for jira to put together patch notes for my team in confluence automatically. Everything was going well until one of the lookups returned more then 100 issues (it was a big release!)

Im looking to swap out my patch notes bot lookups for web requests in order to query the api, and get back lists of larger than 100 issues. I have the request going out just fine, and I am getting the data I need back, but i'm struggling a bit on how to format the data I get back from the web hook.

Is there a way to create a list of issues, similar to the lists you can create with a lookup, using data collected up via a web request api query?

I'm a little stumped here and any help would be appreciated!
