Convert HTML text in table to regular text for email

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 15

I am pulling an ADO query, then creating an HTML table with the information from the query. I then Initialize a variable, and send the variable with email. 

 

My issue is that the Description column from the query in the table contains HTML code and makes it unreadable and far too long.

 

A description that should be 2700 characters long, is instead 8800 characters long due to all the HTML code. 

 

I tried to use HTML to text before creating the table. While it removed most of the html, it would just group every description together and then use that unified description in every row. When I tried to use it after creating the table, it did not do anything.

 

The only new idea I can come up with is somehow concerting the text with some function in the Create HTML table action. I have tried using replace, but it would be too tedious to do so one by one.
