This line works, but
my @all_names = map { {name => $_->{name}} } @{ $data }[1 .. $#$data];

I just need some explaining in how different one line of code is from another, why wouldn't the name=>"Accounts" be picked up by the code here:
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;

my $data = 
[
  {
    val => "action",
    name => "Accounts",
    id => "None",
  },
  { name => "PA1", id => "AUTOB" },
  { name => "PB3", id => "AUTOP" },
  { name => "BOX", id => "BOP" },
  { name => "DW0", id => "DFIRE" },
  { name => "QW3", id => "HOME" },
  { name => "CM7", id => "CUMBR" },
  { name => "BR1", id => "PUMBR" },
  { name => "TY6", id => "ECUST" },
]
;

#my @all_names = map { $_->{name} } @{ $data }[1 .. $#$data];
#my @hash_names = map{ {name=>$_} } $data;
my @all_names = map { {name => $_->{name}} } @{ $data }[1 .. $#$data];

print Dumper(\@all_names);
#print Dumper \@hash_names;

__END__
