I have the following code in Postman Test. I am trying to extract from a JSON some values. However they are not posted in the environment variables. 

pm.test("Extract Projects", function () {

    var jsonData = pm.response.json();
    var aDataEntry = [];

    for (var i=0;i<jsonData.length;i++){

        if (jsonData[i].projectCategory.name=="External Projects")
        {
          aDataEntry.push(jsonData[i].key);
        }
    }

    console.log('test');

    pm.environment.set('projects',JSON.stringify(aDataEntry));

});

Not really sure why you wrapped it in a test as it's not really testing anything.

Without seeing the actual response data, you could try this:

var jsonData    = pm.response.json();
var aDataEntry  = [];

_.each(jsonData, (arrItem) => {
    if(arrItem.projectCategory.name === "External Projects") {
        aDataEntry.push(arrItem.key);
    }
})

pm.environment.set('projects', JSON.stringify(aDataEntry));
