How does this tool work?
Like other Albato tools, it is added between steps of automation. To do this, click on the '+' and select the tool from the list.
The tool has two required fields:
String to split - specify a field from the previous steps to split.
Delimiter - specify a symbol to divide the string into elements. Any symbol/set of symbols can be used as a delimiter.
As a result of the tool, a user receives a row section - 'Split elements' - in the next step of the automation.
This section has one field that will contain these elements.
Below is a visualization of the tool's operation:
(We will show you how this tool works below)
string = 'name1;name2;name3'; // we get a string with several elements;
[
{result: 'name1'},
{result: 'name2'},
{result: 'name3'},
]
//We display the result as three strings in one section.
How the result of the tool will look:
All ';' symbols will divide the incoming string into the elements of a row section.
In the example of spreadsheets, the result will be either three lines in one cell or three rows separately.
