How to loop through a variable string of delimitered values

Hi! It sounds like you’re looking to loop through a delimited list for an interaction in your prototype. To help the community better address your question, would you mind providing more specific details about what sort of functionality you’re trying to create by looping through the list? This would help to get a better sense of what your prototype currently does and needs to do so that we can advise with the appropriate suggestions. If you’re able to post the file then that would be a great help as well.

In the meantime, if you’re trying to work with each value in your list, then the following post may help to point you in the right direction:

How do I extract all of the values returned using the Split method?

@MarcS, Yeah, I’ve not been able to get the split() method to work either. My basic method is to use slice() to get only the target substring or value I need, e.g., MyString.slice(0, MyString.indexOf('TargetSub')). The slice() function does not alter the string, so if I need to actually extract and remove substrings, I then use substring() or replace() to remove the target substring. E.g., MyString.replace('TargetSub', ''). See this recent thread where I use a method to do this with a repeate…
