Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

I'm new to using Power Automate, but I have managed to create a flow that does what I need it to. It takes the response from an MS Form, updates an MS List in MS Teams and posts a message on the MS Teams channel saying that the list has an update. This works.

My problem is cleaning up the data format from a choice list recorded in the MS Form. When the message is posted it reads as

["Option 1","Option 3"]

I would like it to read as

Option 1, Option 3

How do I get rid of the square brackets and quotation marks?

Any help would be appreciated.

@Hensman You need to parse the data from the MS Form response. Take a look at this section of my YT Tutorial: How to Get a Microsoft Form RSVP Response into a SharePoint List.

I'll show you how to parse a multi-choice answer so you can add it to a multi-choice column in SharePoint as well as a how to output it as a string of text (which is what you are looking for).
