Hopefully, this is better and helps:
Code:
# Set run array
array=( $(awk -F '\n' -v RS="" -v ref="$s5" '$0 ~ ref {d=split($0, val, " "); for(i=2;i<d;i+=2) printf "%s ",val[i]; printf "\n"}' list | tr -d '\r') )  ## match run in rna.barcode and extract patient

# iterate through array
for ID in "${array[*]}" ; do
echo "$ID" > /tmp/out.txt
       echo "( cd /path/to/${ID}*/path/to/folder && xec sshpass -f file.txt scp -- *.png* xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination/${ID}-cn_results)"
       sshpass -f out.txt ssh -o strictHostKeyChecking=no -t xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xx
done

Contents of out --- This is array with all samples one one line ---
Code:
ID1 ID2

echo to terminal
Code:
( cd /path/to/ID1 ID2*/*/path/to/folder && exec sshpass -f file.txt scp -- *.png* xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination/ID1 ID2-cn_results.png)

Code:
├──/path/to/   ---- common path after ssh ---
│   ├── ID1*   --- unique ${ID}* represents random text ---
│   │   └── /this/ID1/folder
│   ├── ID2*   --- unique ${ID}* represents random text ---
│   │   └── /this/ID2/folder
Description:

After ssh to the common path on the server, each unique ID is used to further navigate to folder. In each folder there is a png (cn_results), that the unique ID is append to (ID-cn_results) and this 
append file is scp to xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination. It seems that since array is one line both are being used and that is causing the error?

JE::Object::Array(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    JE::Object::Array(3pm)

NAME
JE::Object - JavaScript Array object class SYNOPSIS
use JE; use JE::Object::Array; $j = new JE; $js_array = new JE::Object::Array $j, 1, 2, 3; $perl_arrayref = $js_array->value; # returns [1, 2, 3] $js_array->[1]; # same as $js_array->value->[1] "$js_array"; # returns "1,2,3" DESCRIPTION
This module implements JavaScript Array objects. The "@{}" (array ref) operator is overloaded and returns a tied array that you can use to modify the array object itself. The limitations and caveats mentioned in "JE::Object/"USING AN OBJECT AS A HASH"" apply here, too. METHODS
See JE::Types for descriptions of most of the methods. Only what is specific to JE::Object::Array is explained here. $a = JE::Object::Array->new($global_obj, @elements) $a = JE::Object::Array->new($global_obj, $length) $a = JE::Object::Array->new($global_obj, @elements) This creates a new Array object. If the second argument is an unblessed array ref, the elements of that array become the elements of the new array object. If there are two arguments and the second is a JE::Number, a new array is created with that number as the length. Otherwise, all arguments starting from the second one become elements of the new array object. $a->value This returns a reference to an array. This is a copy of the Array object's internal array. If you want an array through which you can modify the object, use @$a. SEE ALSO
