The author of the text was browsing the Couchbase forums and came across a question about querying array data in Couchbase, which they also struggled with when coming from a relational database background. The user wanted to know how to query for objects that were nested in an array within a single document, using a proposed document model as an example. The author provided two N1QL queries to accomplish this task: one using the `UNNEST` keyword and another using a collection operator to find array items that meet the criteria. These examples should help developers get started with querying arrays in Couchbase using N1QL. Additionally, the author mentions that there are other ways to achieve this goal, but these two queries should provide a good starting point.
