Hi everyone,

I have the attached text. I’d like to separate it in unique fields that I can use in further steps. Can someone guide me? I tried using utilities and text in formatter - can’t get it to work.

 

Thank you

Hi @Troy Tessalone, see attached.

My objective is to get “Zapier”, “Jane”, “zaptesting@zaptest.com” etc. as separate fields that I can call in the next step and upload to a google sheet.

Thanks!

The data from LinkedIn Ads is an array of line items already.

 

Try these Zap steps…

Action: Formatter > Utilities > Line Items to Text

Action: Formatter > Text > Split

Return as separate fields
