Note sure haw to parse this into a dropdown.

My json result from a rest call for available years comes back with an array that by default wants to load as one record, rather than parse into multiple entries. Any thoughts?

The json results look like:
[2013,2012,2011,2010,2009,2008,2007,2006,2005,2004,2003,2002,2001,2000,1999,1998,1997,1996,1995,1994,1993,1992,1991,1990]

I think the problem is that the array has no labels for itself or the values.

When you test your service, click Populate Response Structure button. It will automatically create the JSON response (it worked for me).

Thats is what I did. However when I am in the data mapping tool I have nothing to point to the group level.

Add a . (period) as a sub element and them map it a component inside a grid:
