I’m setting up a logic sequence that takes any UK postcode and removes the final 3 characters and returns the remaining characters.
e.g.
B48OP becomes B4
B755UG becomes B75
and WV125ET becomes WV12
The postcode string could be 5, 6 or 7 characters long - in each case I want to remove the final 3 characters and return the remaining characters as above. I’ve already created steps to remove spaces and make upper case - it’s just this final bit I can’t figure out.
Any ideas?

Try .slice(0,-3);

Good question.
Check out this related topic:

Hi Troy, thanks for this!
Ok, so I’ve followed that and used the following code to slice off the final 3 characters from the testing value “PR26QY”
let Text = inputData.Text;
let Text1 = Text.slice(-3);
output = [{Text1}];
But then it’s the final 3 characters “6QY” that are returned in the output and not the initial string which I need.
Can I use some code to remove the above output from the initial string to leave the remaining characters? Something like the following:
Output = [{Text} minus {Text1}]
?
