So what’s happening is that you’re asking to store JSON, but the handlebars template is giving you back an object at the path specified (`data.cleaningTime`).

The “Store JSON” option is expecting you to do something like:

```auto
{ "startTime": {{data.cleaningTime.startTime}}, "endTime": {{data.cleaningTime.endTime}} }

```

In this case, I would suggest using the “Store Value from Payload Path” option under “Operation”. Then, your “Value” would just be `data.cleaningTime`.

Hope this helped,
