Trim String

The Trim String node is used to remove any leading and trailing whitespace characters from a string. Whitespace characters include spaces, tabs, and newlines that appear before the first non-whitespace character or after the last non-whitespace character in a string.

Variable Name

Variable name containing string which you want to trim

true

Example

Let's say you want to remove all the leading and trailing whitespaces in @wscos@ stored in $.variables.password.

  1. Set Variable Name to $.variables.password.

It will convert the string in place and store in the same variable. If variable $.variables.password doesn't exist, it'll raise an error.

Returns

This node does not return any value, but stores the trimmed string in the same variable provided in <Variable Name> in the flow context.
