Hey there,
I am trying to break line items in a long text field into separate items and turn them into an array.
The Split function is doing exactly that.
Unfortunately, the line breaks are not shown as /n as usual, but as spaces.
I have no clue how to use space as a delimiter in this case.
Here is the simple formula:
split(Form Input,SPACE?!)
split(form input, ' ')
Should have led with that. It’s not working unfortunately
I wonder why it’s not working for me. It must have something to do with the input form.
It’s not recognizing the spaces apparently. When I use other delimiters (like https or anything other than the space), it’s working.
Can only add one image. Tried both your versions with the same result. Not working
I fixed it by building a workaround.
I saved the form input into a text variable and in the next action used that variable and split that.
Turns out, once saved as text variable it actually turns the line breaks into \n.
Works like a charm now.
No need for workarounds. Try this
the second parameter of the function is actually /\s/, do not add other spaces in the middle. It’s probably better if you use the javascript view for this case
Perfect!
This works!
I never worked with Regex, tried earlier a few things including this, but without enclosing it in //…
Feels like it’s time to finally do a crash course in Regex.
Thanks a lot!
