Extract subset of data from Forms to Sharepoint list

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla... Microsoft Employee

I have a form that currently sends the field "WorkDays" to a sharepoint list (The person selects multiple days in the survey)
the current output looks like this:

["Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday"]  or ["Sunday","Friday","Saturday"]

 

I'd like to keep this all in the same field for the list with the following output:

M, Tu, W   or Su, F, Sa

 

Thanks
