Solution 1

SQL doesn't have a concept of arrays, so this gets a bit fiddly.
Pass a list as a string parameter:

SQL

DECLARE @INSTR as VARCHAR(MAX)
SET @INSTR = '2,3,177,'
DECLARE @SEPERATOR as VARCHAR(1)
DECLARE @SP INT
DECLARE @VALUE VARCHAR(1000)
SET @SEPERATOR = ','
WHILE PATINDEX('%' + @SEPERATOR + '%', @INSTR ) <> 0 
BEGIN
   SELECT  @SP = PATINDEX('%' + @SEPERATOR + '%',@INSTR)
   SELECT  @VALUE = LEFT(@INSTR , @SP - 1)
   SELECT  @INSTR = STUFF(@INSTR, 1, @SP, '')
   INSERT INTO myTable (a, b) VALUES (@VALUE, 'admin')
END
