How would I craft an IF action that will return "true" IF ANY of the words in 2 strings match.

The "Contains" operator needs one of the 2 to be contained exactly, in its entirety, in the other.

I have the same question (0)

    You would need to Split text one of the string, then For each through, and in the loop check if the other string contains %CurrentItem% 🙂

    Yea, that was what I was afraid of, would've been nice to have it as a built in option.
