Hyperledger Fabric How to Parse arrays in req body in node js express

Question

I am getting an array in request body like this:

[

{
   "month" : "JUL",
   "year" :"2018"
},
{
   "month" : "JAN",
   "year" :"2018"
},
{
   "month" : "MAR",
   "year" :"2018"
}
    ]

This has two parameters (month:enum and year:string).

I want to loop through this array and call the chaincode and then send the response. I have tried this:

     for(var i=0; i<req.body.length; i++) {
                    var month = req.body[i].month;
                    var year = req.body[i].year;
                    var monthYear = month + year;
    key = monthYear + "_new";
        console.log("Key is ", key);
            var request = {
            //targets: let default to the peer assigned to the client
            chaincodeId: 'abc',
            fcn: 'getTransactionsByKey',
            args: [key]

//Calling chaincode smartcontract
return channel.queryByChaincode(request);
}

But because I am passing two values in input, the 2nd value result overrides the first one. Can someone tell me how to pass both the parameters?

You can get the value from the key:

for (var key in req.body) {
  if (req.body.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
    let value = req.body[key];
    console.log( `value for ${key} is ${value}` )
  }
}
