Hi @SP-04091518-0

Probably, the main issue with replace function is, it is trying to replace literal strings like '\\r' and '\\n' instead of the actual carriage return and newline characters. In Power Automate expressions, to replace actual line breaks or carriage returns, you need to use the escape sequences for those characters, not their string representations.

Please try these:

Use '\r' and '\n' (without double backslashes) in the replace function.

Or use the replace() function with the actual characters using the '\r' and '\n' escape sequences.

Please try this code:

replace( replace( replace( replace(last(outputs('Message_1')), '\r\n', ''), // Remove CRLF '\r', ''), // Remove CR '\n', ''), // Remove LF ' ', '') // Remove spaces if needed

I am sure some clues I tried to give. If these clues help to resolve the issue brought you by here, please don't forget to check the box Does this answer your question? At the same time, I am pretty sure you have liked the response!
