Heya Daniel! Great to see you continuing to use and test Retool! Double quotes won't work for this scenario due to how we process JavaScript expressions within JSON I'm afraid. When using double quotes within a JSON field, it can accidentally break the JSON structure because Retool inserts the evaluated value directly into the JSON output therefore we recommend using single quotes here.
