Format Text Collection
Overview
This action allows you to easily standardize the format of text values within a collection. You can apply various formatting operations, such as converting to uppercase, lowercase, or escaping special characters for different contexts (like CSV or HTML).
How it Helps

When to Use It
This action is ideal for:
Standardizing text formats within collections.
Cleaning up user-entered data.
Preparing data for integration with other systems or components.
Automating text formatting tasks within your flows.
Example
To format a list of product names for a CSV file:
Create a Text Collection: Have a Text Collection variable containing a list of product names.
Configure the Action: Select the product name collection and choose "Escape CSV" as the operation to ensure that any special characters in the names are properly escaped for CSV compatibility.
Key Considerations
