𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?
It is a powerful feature which allows you to inject variables, expressions directly into a standard string. It makes creating and formatting strings easier and more readable.
Used in programming languages. Also available in Power Apps and now in Power Automate Desktop.
𝗘𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲:
🔷 Power Fx in PAD – 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 String Interpolation
="Welcome, " & vFirstName & " " & vLastName & ", " & "this is a nice update in PAD Version 2.41"
🔷 Power Fx in PAD – 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 String Interpolation
=$"Welcome, {vFirstName} {vLastName}, this is a nice update in PAD Version 2.41"
❗Key points to note and benefits:
🔹String interpolation strings begin with a $
🔹Use curly braces {} to evaluate and embed the variable or expression
🔹Both, normal text or interpolated strings can be used anywhere within that line of text
🔹No need of any ‘&’ operator, thus easy to read as well as write formatted strings.
🔹This is applicable only for Power Fx enabled desktop flows (in preview). The "=" sign in the beginning is the Power Fx notation.
