Use of Line Item in formatter

Hi everyone

I am trying to figure out how to handle the situation where text fields passed through the line itemizer but don’t contain any separator. I can’t get them separated out of the source.

I’ve read all the documentation on the Formatter and Line Itemizer, and searched the community forum, but can’t see how to handle this.

I tried delimiting the text with commas, special characters (return etc) , but the itemizer just connects all the line items into one string?

Can someone please advise?

Thanks

Hi @edhalfpast!

I can see that this post is from a while back so you may have figured this one out, but just in case…

 

In the Zap editor, line items will look like a comma-separated list even when they are actually line items. 

 

Here’s an example of line items from a trigger test:

 

And here’s what those fields look like in the Zap editor

 

I hope that helps!
