How can we merge two documents in a Document Flow?

I have a document flow shown in below image. I want to merge the data from input document (BOD) with the patch document (JSON) to get enriched output document.

I want to merge the value in the 1st line of the first column with 1st line of the 2nd column. How can i do? Many thanks for your help in advance.

@recep-gun - it's sounds like you are trying to concatenate data, not merge the new incremental fields into the source document, am I understanding correctly?

I think you have two options:

one is to use the script option in the merge feature:

the other is to perform a subsequent mapping step to concatenate the source data with the newly merged fields.

Hello! I would recommend the below community post. It is is similar question, but instead doing XML and XML Merge. You would be able to use the script, changing one the input_var's to JSON. You we need to assign the JSON value and insert into the XML. If you run into further issues, let me know. Thanks!

Hi David,

Thank you very much for your suggestions. I applied the script option in the merge feature and solved my problem.
