    "key2": "value2"
    "myids": [
        {
            "key": "value",
            "num": 123,
            "label": "equal"
        }
    ]
}

{
    "key": "value",
    "key2": "value2"
     "myids": {
        "myid": {
            "key": "value",
            "num": 123,
            "value": "equal"
        }
    }
}

this myid object is fix i have to make this and put array into this any kind of help of would be grateful...

That isn't JSON. It's a Javascript object. JSON is the string representation of a Javascript object. — Lee Taylor, Jun 17 '22 at 00:33
Where does `myid` come from? What if the array is empty? What if there is more than one value in the array? — Bergi, Jun 17 '22 at 00:41
@Bergi myid is sub object of myids and it must have value but value can be change some time might be 3 or some time might be 4 — user16821057, Jun 17 '22 at 02:10

The simplest way would probably be to just create a new object and use the spread operator to copy the object and overwrite the myids array.

const obj = {
    "key": "value",
    "key2": "value2",
    "myids": [
        {
            "key": "value",
            "num": 123,
            "label": "equal"
        }
    ]
}

const newObj = { 
    ...obj,
  "myids": {
    "myid": obj.myids[0]
  }
}

Of course, this isn't very dynamic, but it does the trick. If you have more than one element in the array you could use a loop - but you would also need to have different names for the new object.

you can make it in one line:

data.myids = { myid:data.myids[0] };
