Hi
Are there always only 4 items in the array?
Can you please elaborate on your use case?
Hey Troy, thanks for following up.
No it can either be more or less, its not fixed to 4

What are you trying to do with these formatted items OR where are you trying to send this data?

Just wanted to follow up here to confirm that it’s possible to convert a set of line items into a HTML formatted bulleted list. To do that you’d first need to use Formatter’s (Utilities > Line-item to Text) action. This will convert them into a comma separated list of text. For example:
Then you would use a Formatter (Text > Replace) action to convert the commas into </li><li> which are HTML tags that end the previous list item and start a new one:
Next, in the app you’re looking to add the bulleted list to, you’d add the opening and closing HTML tags for the list (<ul><li> and </li></ul>) and select the middle section containing the list items from the previous Formatter step. If you were using Gmail for example, it would look something like this:
The above will then generate any number of line items into a bulleted list. To create a numbered HTML List instead of bulled list you’d use <ol> and </ol> instead of <ul and </ul>. :)
