Remove the first character from array element

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 102

Hello Guys, 

 

Hopefully this is a simple question. 

I am parsing jason and getting an array back, I'd like to remove the first character from 'emaillist' element before appending it  to the string variable. 

I tried Substring(items('Apply_to_each_2')['emaillist'],1, length(items('Apply_to_each_2')['emaillist'])) but it's not working

 

Thank you!
