Hi,

OOTB the coral multifield stoored values as node. You have to write your own logic to store the multifield as json but you can read it from Node as well. YOu can check some old thread with the same queries.

I have fixed by jqury dialog logic i will capture multifield data and concert into json and store into text field please refer below code 

console.log("client multifields....");
(function(document, $, ns) {
"use strict";
$(document).on("click", ".cq-dialog-submit", function(e) {
var attributelist =$("input[name='./fname']").attr("data-attribute1").split(",");

console.log("attributelist"+attributelist.size);
var parentlabel = "./"+ $("input[name='./fname']").attr("data-parentlabel");

var $formminmax = $(this).closest("form.foundation-form");

var field = $formminmax.find("[data-granite-coral-multifield-name='"+parentlabel+"']");
var totalLinkCount = field.children('coral-multifield-item').length;
var test = field.children('coral-Form-fieldwrapper').name;

var jsonObj = [];

for (var i = 0; i < totalLinkCount; i++) {
var item = {}
console.log("pp"+'itemXX'.replace('XX',i));

for (var j=0; j < attributelist.length; j++) {
var itemname = './bookdetailswithmap/item'+i+'/./'+attributelist[j];
item [attributelist[j]] =field.find($("[name='"+itemname+"']")[0]).val();
}
jsonObj.push(item);
}
var obj2 = {"parentlabel": jsonObj };
snippet.log(obj2.personalization.name);
$('.fnameclass').val(JSON.stringify(jsonObj));
});
})(document, Granite.$, Granite.author);
