    // {

    // Let's say we want to insert jsonB into jsonA to get this:

    // {
    //   "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
    //   "status": 200,
    //   "error": "errorMsg",
    //   "users": [
    //     {
    //       "role": "Surgeon",
    //       "sub_roles": [],
    //       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
    //       "eula_create_date": 1649108922482
    //     },
    //     {
    //       "role": "Support",
    //       "sub_roles": [
    //         "Tech",
    //         "Service"
    //       ],
    //       "viewable_for_sharing": true,
    //       "eula_create_date": 1649108951523
    //     }
    //   ]
    // }

    // The destination is the empty "users" array, the source is the populated "users" array in jsonB.
    var jsonUsersDest = new chilkat.JsonArray();
    jsonA.AppendArray2("users",jsonUsersDest);

    var jsonUsersSrc = new chilkat.JsonArray();
    jsonB.ArrayOf2("users",jsonUsersSrc);

    // Copy the array items from source to dest
    jsonUsersDest.AppendArrayItems(jsonUsersSrc);

    console.log(jsonA.Emit());

    // The end result is this:

    // {
    //   "ciphertext": "encryptedData",
    //   "status": 200,
    //   "error": "errorMsg",
    //   "users": [
    //     {
    //       "role": "Surgeon",
