# To Lower Text Step

The To Lower Text Step changes all capital letters in a text variable to lowercase. You can use this step to make text input consistent, get data ready for comparisons, or format text for display.

## How to Use the To Lower Text Step

This step takes a text variable you already have and makes a new variable with the same content, but in lowercase.

### Step 1: Add the To Lower Text Step

1.  Open your process in the Robotiq.ai Process Editor.
2.  Drag the "To Lower Text" step from the "Text" category into your workflow.

### Step 2: Configure the Step

1.  **Step name** (Optional): Give this step a custom name. This helps you find it in your process.
2.  **Source text variable** (Required): Pick an existing string variable that has the text you want to change.
3.  **Destination Text variable** (Required): Type the name for a new variable where the lowercase text will go. If a variable with this name already exists, its value will update.

**Example:**

If your `Source text variable` has "HELLO WORLD 123", the `Destination Text variable` will have "hello world 123".
