Convert to String

PreviousConcat StringsNextLength of String

Last updated 9 months ago

The Convert to String node is used to convert a value stored in a variable to a string and store the result in a new variable. This is particularly useful when you need to ensure that numeric, boolean, or other data types are required to be represented as strings for further processing, display, or concatenation with other strings.

Properties Panel

Field

Description

Required

Node name

true

Variable Name

Name of the new variable in which the converted value would be stored

true

Value to convert

Values or Variables containing values needs to be converted to string

true

Example

Let's say you want to convert variable $.variables.age to string.

  1. Set Variable Name to age_string.

  2. Set Value to convert to $.variables.age

It will convert the value present in $.variable.age. The variable $.variables.age_string will contain the converted value.

Returns

This node does not return any value, but stores the converted value in a new string variable with name provided in <Variable Name> in the flow context.
