I'm trying to remove spaces from a string using the replace function, below.

Could someone explain how to add dynamic content to this please. I want to replace the Test ABM 123 with this content -

outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/r31cbcf1f60b442d38f94f4184b9adc1a']
 
Thank you.

replace('Test ABC 123',' ', '')

Hi,

In the provided expression, you are simply removing any blank spaces from the text "Test ABC 123". If you want an expression to remove the value dynamically corresponding to your Form response from the text "Test ABC 123", you can use this expression: replace('Test ABC 123',outputs('Get_response_details')?['body/r31cbcf1f60b442d38f94f4184b9adc1a'], '')

Another option: when you are typing the expression, set your mouse cursor where you want to include the dynamic content (in yellow below) and click in the Dynamic content tab (in red). It will display the list of dynamic contents without leaving the expression. You can then click in any dynamic contents to add it to the expression:

This is what happens after clicking in the dynamic content:

You could also use the trim expression: Power Automate: trim function - Manuel T. Gomes . I think that would be more efficient for your use case. Examples of how to use this are in the link provided.
