How to use the post_poll method in Zapier CLI - zapier-cli

Question

According to the docs, I should use a post_poll function to add the missing id field in the response.
How do I add the post_poll function ?
Here's my error:
Results must be an array, got: object,
({"totalevents":83,"events":[{"eventid":10266033,"c)
- Got a result missing the "id" property (83)
Tried following this but it is not clear to me, I'm very new to Zapier-CLI
Update - adding code
This is the function that returns the data:
const listEvents = (z, bundle) => {
console.log('listing events.. ');
let client_id = bundle.inputData.client_id;
const requestOpts = {
url: `https://wccqa.on24.com/wcc/api/v2/client/${client_id}/event`
};
return z.request(requestOpts)
.then((response) => {
return z.JSON.parse(response.content);
});
};
The sample response is the following, with the distiction that I added the id param manually to avoid errors when zapier test|push:
{
"id": 9964513,
"eventid": 9964513,
"archivestart": "2017-09-21T10:30:00-07:00",
"archiveend": "2018-09-21T10:30:00-07:00",

"liveend": "2017-09-21T10:00:00-07:00",
"createtimestamp": "2017-09-21T09:47:44-07:00",

"regnotificationrequired": true,
"isactive": true,
"localelanguagecd": "en"
}
The ACTUAL response from the endpoint the following which is used in the app created in the Web Builder App instead of CLI and works fine:
{
"events": [
{
"eventid": 9964513,
"archivestart": "2017-09-21T10:30:00-07:00",
"archiveend": "2018-09-21T10:30:00-07:00",
"description": "Zapier Event Test",
"iseliteexpired": "N",
"displaytimezonecd": "America/Bogota",
"eventtype": "Live Webcam ",
"regrequired": true,
"clientid": 22921,
"liveend": "2017-09-21T10:00:00-07:00",
"createtimestamp": "2017-09-21T09:47:44-07:00",
"audienceurl": "https://localhost.on24.com/wcc/r/9964513/C49755A02229BD48E6010848D7C81EF8",

"goodafter": "2017-09-21T09:00:00-07:00",
"regnotificationrequired": true,
"isactive": true,
"localelanguagecd": "en"
}
],
"totalevents": 1
}
I was thinking something along the line of the following, but how do I register this ?
const postPoll = (event,z,bundle) => {
if(event.key === 'events'){
var results = z.JSON.parse(bundle.request.data).results;
var events = results.events.map(function(event){
event.id = event.eventid;
return event;
});
bundle.request.data = events;
}
};
module.exports = postPoll;

Nice, so you're almost there! CLI apps don't have pre_ and post_ poll methods. Instead, you put any manipulation after the response comes in.
const listEvents = (z, bundle) => {
console.log('listing events.. ');
let client_id = bundle.inputData.client_id;
const requestOpts = {
url: `https://wccqa.on24.com/wcc/api/v2/client/${client_id}/event`
};
return z.request(requestOpts)
.then((response) => {
return z.JSON.parse(response.content);
})
.then(data => {
const events = data.events; // array of events
return events.map(function(e){ // returns array of objects with `id` defined
e.id = e.event_id
return e
})
})
};
