Using lists in Identity IQ workflows at approval steps

Sailpoint’s Identity IQ converts all the empty lists that go through an approval step in a workflow into NULL values. This does not hold the same with non-empty lists.

For example, we have a global variable in the workflow which is an empty ArrayList ( [] ). It is going to be converted to ( NULL ) once it goes through an approval step. So in order that the lists work as per our need, we could provide a dummy value so that list is never converted to NULL when it goes through an approval.
