The result you want is invalid, both as JSON and as JavaScript. — Heretic Monkey, Nov 05 '21 at 14:06
You appear to be confused about the difference between JSON, which is a text format for sending and storing data, and objects, which are simply another structure in JavaScript.

To be clear, the JSON version of your array would be exactly that:

['element1', 'element2', 'element3']

If you want to add the value field, you can manually add it first, before converting into JSON.

Working demo

The below code produces this:

[{"value":"element1"},{"value":"element2"},{"value":"element3"}]

let array = ['element1', 'element2', 'element3']

let arrayWithValue = array.map(el => ({value: el}));

console.log(JSON.stringify(arrayWithValue));
