Formatting Check-in Comments

Posted on by Pi-in-the-sky

Hi!

I'm trying to format check-in comments from a sharepoint file so that they are on separate line items. The first snip is how the outputted email currently comes in through the initialize variable action. Second snip is how I'd ideally like to see it. I tried using compose and set variable commands (third snip) and last snip is most of the code.

I'm pretty new so any help would be appreciated!

Use an expression that looks like this:

concat('string1','
','string2','
','string3')

That will give you new lines

Thanks @schwibach , don't I have to define and split out string 1, 2 and 3 beforehand? Wouldn't this have to happen in an apply to each loop so I don't have to define the number of strings (as they will not be constant)?

Yes, you split your string into an array according to your criteria.
If the length of that array is not constant, you initialise an empty string variable.
Then you loop through the array and append the concatenated string with the line break.
