Hi,

In CoPilot when using mutiple choice, the answer becomes a 'choice' param. When using this in combination with Power Automate, for instance in the use of sending an automatic mail with the filled in answers, it asks for 'string' params. What is the most efficient way to convert a 'choice' param to a 'string' param?

    You can use Power Automate's Expression Editor to convert the choice parameter into a string. For example, you can add a Compose action with the below expression.
    string(YourChoiceParameter)
    This will automatically convert the choice value into a string.
    If your 'choice' is a complex object or part of a multiple-choice scenario, you may need to loop through the options and concatenate them into a string using a loop (e.g., Apply to Each).
     
    Thanks.
