Converter steps

The following converter steps are now available in Robots.

These steps can only be used inside steps that belong to a converter group. The conversion and extraction are performed with the help of the $current and $initial built-in variables.

Refer to Data Conversion in the Tungsten RPA Help.

Extract Number

Use this converter step in Robots to extract a number from a text and convert the value using decimal and thousands separators, or Convert to Integer option.

Refer to Extract Number in the Tungsten RPA Help.

Format Number

Use this converter step in Robots to reformat a number. The input text must be a number in the standard number format, such as "12378.64".

Specify a format pattern that provides a flexible way to customize the number format.

Use Format Number with the Extract Number step.

Refer to Format Number in the Tungsten RPA Help.

Pattern Matching

Use this converter step in Robots to manipulate a text, for example, extract parts of a text. The patterns match against the built-in $current variable. If none of the patterns in a step matches the $current variable, or if evaluation takes too long, a MatchIssue exception is thrown.

Refer to Pattern Matching in the Tungsten RPA Help.
