Array with 2 values to one string with both values

I have data coming from Airtable, where one cell (homeroom teachers) can contain multiple homerooms. The data from Airtable is an array with several values. Later in my workflow, I need to redirect the process based on the homeroom. Currently, the process is only continuing for the homeroom in the first line, but not the second. How can I transform:

  1. Homeroom A

  2. Homeroom B
    into:
    Homeroom A - Homeroom B?

Thanks!

Welcome to the Make community!

To allow others to assist you with your scenario, please provide the following:

1. Relevant Screenshots

Please share screenshots of your scenario, any error messages, relevant module fields, and filters in question? It would really help other community members to see what you’re looking at.

You can upload images here using the Upload icon in the text editor:

2. Scenario Blueprint

Please export the scenario blueprint file to allow others to view the mapped variables in the module fields. At the bottom of the scenario editor, you can click on the three dots to find the Export Blueprint menu item.

3. Output Bundles of Modules

Please provide the output bundles of the modules by running the scenario (or get from the scenario History tab), then click the white speech bubble on the top-right of each module and select “Download input/output bundles”.

A. Upload as Text File

Save each bundle contents in your text editor as a bundle.txt file, and upload it here into this discussion thread.

B. Insert as Formatted Code Block

If you are unable to upload files on this forum, alternatively you can paste the formatted bundles.
These are the two ways to format text so that it won’t be modified by the forum:

  • Method 1: Type code block manually

    Add three backticks ``` before and after the content/bundle, like this:

    ```
    content goes here
    ```

  • Method 2. Highlight and click the format button in the editor

Providing the input/output bundles will allow others to replicate what is going on in the scenario even if they do not use the external service.

Following these steps will allow others to assist you here. Thanks!

I am assuming that the one cell that contains all the homerooms in the airtable are separated by a new line.

You can combine all homeroom values by using the split() function and then use the join() function with a separator as -

If you want to redirect according to homeroom i would keep that split homerooms as an array and then use an array operator in the filter.

Hope this helps!
