Code action is used.

Set the input to a list of phone numbers obtained from Salesforce, as shown below.
At this point, there is a comma in the value, like “,,,090-0000-4444,090-0000-1111”.

 

When you go to the next step and try to execute, the comma will be missing from the value.

 

Is there any way to treat this as data with commas?

Hi @Suzuki 

Add this Zap step before: Formatter > Utilities > Line Items to Text

Hey @Suzuki,

 

Please keep us in the loop for this one. Let us know if Troy’s recommendation got you going with your Zap. Thank you.

Thank you for your reply.

 

I tried that, but it didn't solve the problem.

Similarly, the comma disappears in Data in.

 

I am expecting the output as below.

「&&&090-0000-4444&090-0000-1111」

 

 

 

Hey @Suzuki 👋

It seems that part of the issue is that the commas that appear aren’t really there, they’re just how line items are visually separated in the Zap editor. And the other part is that with Formatter, null (empty) line items are ignored which is why you’re only seeing two values separated by a & in that Output Text field.

There was a workaround shared in the Community a while back that should allow you to convert those empty line items into a &:

Can you give that a try and let us know whether that does the trick?

I was able to resolve the issue using the method you shared.
