Forms to PowerAutomate - Remove [""] square bracket and quotes from output?

Posted on by 106

I am aware this has been answered elsewhere such as here and here, but as usual, the solutions provided are a lot more complicated than what I require, so I am left trying to simplify, and it isn't going so well.

 

I get an output like this:

 

 

["CEO"]

 

 

Multiple responses aren't needed. I simply need to remove the leading [" and then the trailing "] how can I go about doing this?

    Hi @elfreddos ,

     

    You can use this expression: replace(replace(variables('str'), '["', ''), '"]', ''). Just change the red part for the output that need to be cleaned.

     

    Example:

    Output:

    rzaneti_1-1687863330552.png

     

     

    Let me know if it works for you or if you need any additional help!
