How can I split in two a Powerapps trigger value?

Hello,

 

I want to split in two, based on a "," my string which arrives from the powerapps button trigger.

 

My value in flow is "Createitem_TestString" which is connected with powerapps, and I want to initalize a variable like 

first(split(triggerBody()?['Createitem_TestString'],',')) but it's not valid.
 
Can you help me what would be the valid expression?

    It looks like for the triggerBody you don't include the '?' like you do in other variable notation.  This worked for me.

    First(split(triggerBody()['Initializevariable_Value'],','))
