String splitting doesnt do anything

Greetings,

In my flow I take text from a scanned invoice using the micrsosoft Vision API. Then I would like to take the invoice number out of the text by splitting the text everywhere where it says "\n", feed that to a string array and then search for the invoicenumber by going through the array using a for each loop.

Though somehow the split doesnt do anything. The String looks exactly the same before and after the operation.

This is the code of the split in a set variable action:

split(body('Optical_Character_Recognition_(OCR)_to_Text')?['text'],'\')

Does anybody have a clue why this doesnt work?

Re: String splitting doesnt do anything

Okay,

I was not expecting to find a solution this early, but the trick is to initialize a new variable and just press the enter key in the corresponding field. Then replace the '\' with that variable. Code is as follows:

split(body('Optical_Character_Recognition_(OCR)_to_Text')?['text'],variables('enter'))
