Let's say I have a variable users that contains the following string of text where each user is separated by a semicolon and each attribute of each users is separated by a comma:

Bob,1234,[email protected];Mark,5678,[email protected]

How would I split this into a multidimensional array variable userArray that looks like this:

[

    [Bob,1234,[email protected]],

    [Mark,5678,[email protected]]

]

You can do this with split() and map()

var str = 'Bob,1234,[email protected];Mark,5678,[email protected]';

var result = str.split(';').map(e => e.split(','));

console.log(result)
