Parse String
This List tool breaks a string into fields and places those fields as elements in a list of strings. You can sometimes use this tool as a replacement for a series of Insert at Tail steps.
The string "John Doe | 555-1212 | Indianapolis, IN" becomes a list of strings with the following elements:
Element 0 "John Doe "
Element 1 " 555-1212 "
Element 2 " Indianapolis, IN"
Inputs
String to Parse
The string to process with this tool.
Delimiter character(s)
The character(s) to use when determining where the string is divided. The delimiter character is removed from the resulting elements. For example, if you specify "|" as your delimiting character, "|" will not appear in any of the resulting list of string elements.
Outputs
List of Parsed Strings
The list of strings containing the divided elements.
