Read String From List Step

The Read String From List step pulls a specific string from a list of strings. It puts this string into a new or existing string variable. Use this step when you need to get an item from a certain spot in a list.

How to Use Read String From List

This step lets you take one string out of a list of strings by using its index number.

Step 1: Add the Read String From List Step

  1. Drag the Read String From List step into your process.
  2. (Optional) Give the step a different name in the Step name field.

Step 2: Set Up Input Parameters

List of Strings (Required)

  • Pick an existing variable that is a "list of strings." This is the list you'll read from.

Iterator index (Required)

  • Pick an existing variable that is an "integer." This variable should hold the index number of the string you want to get from the list.
  • Important: List indexes usually start at 0. So, the first item is at index 0, the second at index 1, and so on.

Step 3: Set Up Output Parameter

String value destination variable (Required)

  • Type the name for a new or existing variable. The string taken from the list will go here. This variable must be a "string" type.
