Trouble converting a list of numbers to text using pluck in Okta Workflows
I have a list of numbers and need to convert it back to text to write it back to the table so we can keep records for audit purposes.
The documentation around Pluck all show examples of things where a key exists.
Is there a different tact I should be taking instead of Pluck to convert this list of numbers back into text separated by commas?
I've plugged various things into "key" to no avail (0, [], ., root, etc.).
Any help is appreciated.
Have already explored these articles to no avail:

Hi @JakeR.78774 (Customer) , Thank you for reaching out to the Okta Community!
As far as I've been able to gather info on the subject, "pluck" might not be a the way to go about this, right? "pluck" is used explicitly when using a "list of objects",but if I'm understanding this correctly, you are just using a list of numbers, so "list to text" should just be used as is.
While this isn't my area of expertise, I ran it by some of my Workflows colleagues and they mentioned that when working with the Intersected List value, you'll need to locate the card earlier in your flow that produces this output. Change that card's output type to Text. Afterward, pass this output directly into the List to Text card. This is often the case when using cards like List Intersection.
Here's an example using the List Intersection card.
They also mentioned that you should not be using tables for audit purposes.
While Workflows has features for auditing, it's crucial to understand that these are not designed to be the primary or only source of truth for all auditing needs.
