jq map values from different arrays

Time:12-28

I want to parse the following json array that comes out of AWS GetMetricData API. It contains the timestamps and values in different arrays:

{
    "Messages": [],
    "MetricDataResults": [
        {
            "Timestamps": [
                "2021-12-28T02:11:00Z",

I'm trying to transform it to a table that looks like this:

Timestamp | Value | Id
2021-12-28T02:11:00Z | 5.0 | groupDesiredCapacity

I googled around and came up with this jq query .MetricDataResults[] | {t: .Timestamps[], v: .Values[],i: .Id}|[.t,.v,.i]|@csv but it seems to "multiply" the values instead of mapping them.

A bit stuck on this one, any ideas/help are appreciated.

Use the transpose builtin to match the array members to each other

jq -r '.MetricDataResults[] | ([.Timestamps, .Values] | transpose[])   [.Id] | @csv'
"2021-12-28T02:11:00Z",5,"groupDesiredCapacity"
"2021-12-28T02:10:00Z",2,"groupDesiredCapacity"
"2021-12-28T02:09:00Z",2,"groupDesiredCapacity"
...
"2021-12-28T01:54:00Z",0.4000066667777796,"cpuUtilization"
"2021-12-28T01:53:00Z",58.31569473842103,"cpuUtilization"
"2021-12-28T01:52:00Z",5.98135840794e-05,"cpuUtilization"

If you want to have your desired output format instead of csv, replace @csv with join(" | ")

jq -r '.MetricDataResults[] | ([.Timestamps, .Values] | transpose[])   [.Id] | join(" | ")'
2021-12-28T02:11:00Z | 5 | groupDesiredCapacity
2021-12-28T02:10:00Z | 2 | groupDesiredCapacity
2021-12-28T02:09:00Z | 2 | groupDesiredCapacity
...
2021-12-28T01:54:00Z | 0.4000066667777796 | cpuUtilization
2021-12-28T01:53:00Z | 58.31569473842103 | cpuUtilization
2021-12-28T01:52:00Z | 5.98135840794e-05 | cpuUtilization

A straightforward alternative:

.MetricDataResults[]
| .Id as $Id
| range(0; .Timestamps|length) as $i
| [.Timestamps[$i], .Values[$i], $Id]
| @csv
