How to store jmeter response to an array in order to make request with the given array?

I want to create a Jmeter testplan and I need a object that is create with another object reference. I want to create this object 'owner' 100 times and with the response create 100 'devices' in which one of the fields will be an 'owner_ref'.

I want to create the devices with the corresponding ids like

ownerId1-->device1
ownerId2-->device2 and so on.

Im using now:

testPlan:
    HttpRequest
        Json Path Postprocessor--> extract 'id' to variable 'ownerId'

How I can create an array of ownerIds and iterate through this 100 to create new request with these ids?

I am thinking in use beanShell but should be another easier and cleaner method to do. Thanks to all!

As JSON Path PostProcessor documentation states, you can use Match Numbers parameter:

-1 means extract all results, they will be named as variable name_N (where N goes from 1 to Number of results)

So you could configure your JSON Path PostProcessor like this:

Variable Names: ownerId
...
Match Numbers: -1

Which will produce variables: ownerId1,...,ownerIdN

And then you have a few options, most obvious of them is to use ForEach Controller exactly as help describes

ForEach Controller
 Input variable prefix: ownerId
 Output variable: currentId

So now any sampler under that controller can use ${currentId}
