@Abhay Chandramouli Thanks for reaching out. Can you confirm in which language you have created your function app?

As your using dotnet then I will suggest you to leverage the dotliquid

You can simply add the Install the DotLiquid package in your Azure Functions project. You can do this by adding this to your csproj file or add the nuget package.

For your reference sharing the steps:

Leverage new LiquidTemplate object and pass in the JSON data as a string. You can do this using the following code:

var template = Template.Parse(jsonString);

Create a new Hash object and add any variables that you want to use in your Liquid template. You can do this using the following code:

var hash = new Hash();
hash.Add("variable1", "value1");
hash.Add("variable2", "value2");

Render the Liquid template using the Render method and passing in the Hash object. You can do this using the following code:

var result = template.Render(hash);

The result variable will contain the transformed JSON data. In case if you need any help with the SDK then you can reach out to the out to them over them over here

If you need any assistance with Azure function then please let me know.
