Hi I have pulled Shopify customer tags as a list into Zapier separated by commas. I would like to remove items from the list that starts with “fbn”. The order of the items in the list will vary per customer along with the number of items in the list.
So for example I have Shopify tags like this:
blue, large, fbn01, hat
With Zapier how can I remove fbn01 by searching the string for fbn.
Thanks

Thanks Ken.a and Troy! I was trying to exclude items that contain the string so Ken.a’s method didn’t work for that. But ended up finding Troys article here which worked great.
So final code is:
let Set = inputData.Set.split(","); // creates array by splitting Input Data Variable at commas
let FilterBy = inputData.FilterBy; // value to filter the array by
Set = Set.filter(i => !i.includes(FilterBy)); // use ! EXCLUDE values in array
output = [{Set}];
