Use something like this (this is for an order but it's conceptually the same) in the output templates:

a template to format each item:

# orderItem(x)
- ```
- ${x.name} ${x.qty}
```

And then the template for the order:

# OrderDetails
- ```
ORDER: **${dialog.order.number}**

${join(select(dialog.order.items, x => orderItem(x)), '\n')}

```
