pass stream with array to multiple rows in SQL by Stream Analytics

I have a stream from IoT Hub like:

{
    "topic": "saveData",
    "deviceId": "testDevice",
    "data": [
        {
            "timestamp": "2018-04-06T11:46:11.842305",
            "device": "baiTest",
            "variable": "Status01_Test",
            "name": "m_01_test",
            "value": 365
        },
        {
            "timestamp": "2018-04-06T11:46:11.842306",
            "device": "hmuTest",
            "variable": "Status02_Test",
            "name": "m_02_test",
            "value": 817
        },
        {
            "timestamp": "2018-04-06T11:46:11.842307",
            "device": "vwzTest",
            "variable": "Status03_Test",
            "name": "m_03_test",
            "value": 247
        }
    ]
}

I want to pass this stream in a SQL DB like this:

deviceId    timestamp                   device   variable       name       value
testDevice  2018-04-06T11:46:11.842305  baiTest  Status01_Test  m_01_test  365
testDevice  2018-04-06T11:46:11.842306  hmuTest  Status02_Test  m_02_test  817
testDevice  2018-04-06T11:46:11.842307  vwzTest  Status03_Test  m_03_test  247

My code so far is:

WITH itemList AS ( 
    SELECT deviceId, GetArrayElement(data,0) as datas
    FROM [iotHub] WHERE topic = 'saveData' )
SELECT deviceId, datas.timestamp, datas.device, datas.variable, datas.name, datas.value
INTO [sqlTable]
FROM itemList

But this only stores the first index [0] of the data.array into the SQL. I think storing the array could be handled with the **GetArrayElements** function but I was not able to manage it.

You should use GetArrayElements to flatten complex json in Azure Stream Analytics. Please refer to the following query.

SELECT   
  iothubAlias.deviceId,
  arrayElement.ArrayValue.timestamp,
  arrayElement.ArrayValue.device,
  arrayElement.ArrayValue.variable,
  arrayElement.ArrayValue.name,
  arrayElement.ArrayValue.value
FROM [iothub-input] as iothubAlias  
CROSS APPLY GetArrayElements(iothubAlias.data) AS arrayElement

You will get the result what you want. enter image description here
