How to convert a variable from text (got from "Display input dialog" action) to integer so that some mathematical calculations can be carried out on it like addition and subtraction?
Hi @Rkmatieda
The Action "Convert text to number" would be helpful in that case.
I hope that helps!
Hi @PetrosF-MSFT ,
Thanks for the reply.
For others who will read about this issue in future, i have found out a document from help which states that as of now there are only 17 datatypes supported in the PAD.
Variable data types - Power Automate | Microsoft Docs
This was a surprize for me because being a desktop application I was thinking all the .Net Framework datatypes would be available. So is there any future plans of making more/all .net datatypes and their in-built functions be available in PAD?
