Can you put a watch node on the list.create node? Your data may have already been in the right structure, and the list.transpose would put it in the opposite structure in this case.

Hey,  
Not to worry! Just delete the List.Transpose node and let me know if it helped you. If that does not work out, try to interchange the Item0 and Item1 in the List.create node. Hope it helps you. Happy to help!  
Regards,

It’s probably because your `overWrite` input is defaulting to `false`. You need to allow the script to overwrite the existing data. Try making the input `true` and see if that helps.
