@zoj613 Thanks for raising this.

The root-cause is that the tuple is returned from as_compatible_data as single element array:

python import xarray as xr print(xr.core.variable.as_compatible_data((2, 3, 4))) python array((2, 3, 4), dtype=object) This then breaks with the error you are seeing. I'm not quite sure if this is a bug in the code, a bug in the doc or no bug at all. But as a tuple is easily wrapped by np.array there should be a reason why Xarray is currently not able to digest tuples.
