transform json input using jq command - jq

Question

I have the following json input from a internet service:
{
"sunarme": "foo",
"id": "foo-id",
"name": "Foo bar",
"profile": [
{
"id": "test1",
"products": [
"product1",
"product2"
],
"description": "test1 description"
},
{
"id": "test2",
"products": [
"product3",
"product4",
"product5"
],
"description": "test2 description"
},
{
"id": "test3",
"products": [
"product6",
"product7",
"product8"
],
"description": "test2 description"
}
]
}
So I need to transform profile key from array to json object. This is the desired output:
{
"sunarme": "foo",
"id": "foo-id",
"name": "Foo bar",
"profile": {
"test1": [
"product1",
"product2"
],
"test2": [
"product3",
"product4",
"product5"
],
"test3": [
"product6",
"product7",
"product8"
]
}
}
I don't have any idea how to do it in jq command, please, could you help me?
Thanks in advance.

Use with_entries which lets you convert the array into an object if you adjust the .keys accordingly.
jq '.profile |= with_entries(.key = .value.id | .value |= .products)'
Demo
Or use reduce to build the object by iterating through the array.
jq '.profile |= reduce .[] as $p ({}; .[$p.id] = $p.products)'
Demo
Or use map to convert each array item into an object, then merge them using add.
jq '.profile |= (map({(.id): .products}) | add)'
Demo
Output is:
{
"sunarme": "foo",
"id": "foo-id",
"name": "Foo bar",
"profile": {
"test1": [
"product1",
"product2"
],
"test2": [
"product3",
"product4",
"product5"
],
"test3": [
"product6",
"product7",
"product8"
]
}
}
