Process of Array of Strings in Beanshell preprocessor in Jmeter

I have a Jmeter (version 4.0) test script where I am using json extractor to fetch an array of strings from the response json using $..Names and storing it in a variable groupOfNames. The various names are stored like groupOfNames_1, groupOfNames_2, groupOfNames_ALL.

I need to make POST call next with body as 

{
"name1", "name2", "name3" (--actual values--)
}

How can i achieve this using bean shell preprocessor? groupOfNames_ALL gives me all value but like this.... name1, name2, name3 (without quotes surrounding individual names). Please help. Thanks.

I heard Groovy is the New Black so you can add quotation marks around each of names as simply as:

vars.put('groupOfNames_ALL',vars.get('groupOfNames_ALL').split(',').collect {"\"$it\""  }.join(', '))

Demo:

Also as a gentle reminder: JMeter users are encouraged to use JSR223 Test Elements for any form of scripting since JMeter 3.1

Put the below code in your BeanShell PreProcessor:

int matchNr = Integer.parseInt(vars.get("groupOfNames_matchNr"));

for(int i = 1; i <= matchNr; i++){
    String Names = vars.get("groupOfNames_" + i);
    if(i == matchNr){
        vars.put("AllNames", vars.get("AllNames") + "\"" + Names + "\"");
    }
    else if(i == 1){
        vars.put("AllNames","\"" + Names + "\", ");
    }
    else{
        vars.put("AllNames", vars.get("AllNames") + "\"" + Names + "\", ");
    }

Then use the variable ${AllNames} in your post as below:

{
${AllNames}
}
