Is there ANY way to output a function response as an ARRAY of MAPS?

Is there ANY way to output a function response as an ARRAY of MAPS?

I need to hae something like the following produced and created as a MAP. As of now, i have tried for 3 consecutive weeks to resolve this issue.  No matter what I attempt, Zoho will see the data as a String, or if it gets converted to a map it only sends one record in the return.

This is the function output that I need as a MAP.
[
    {
        "TERM_DESC": "Balance forward from SONIS",
        "TERMS_ID": "BF11",
        "TERM_START_DATE": "10/17/11",
        "TERM_END_DATE": "10/17/11"
    },
    {
        "TERM_DESC": "Fall 2000",
        "TERMS_ID": "FA00",
        "TERM_START_DATE": "08/28/00",
        "TERM_END_DATE": "12/15/00"
    }
]

Is this possible with Zoho deluge?  I can get it to return as a string without a problem, it even returns a string formatted to look like a Map, but i need a Map bc my next process requires a JSON input not text input.
