Concatenate

This pre-built action located under @Generic Element. The functionality of this action in Avo Assure is to combine two or more strings from the input value and store the combined string in the dynamic variable.

Syntax

Input Value: <string1>;<string2>;…;<stringN>

Argument

Output Value

Argument
Description

<Dynamic Variable>

(Required)

This variable holds the combined value

<Dynamic Variable>

(Optional)

This variable stores the status as True or False

Example 1

Concatenate First Name and Last Name without space.

The Concatenate action takes the values from the Input Value column (John;Doe) First Name (John) and Last Name (Doe) as inputs and combines them into a single string (JohnDoe). The combined string is stored in the {Combined value} variable, while the conversion status is stored in the {status} variable with the following possible values:

  • True – if the concatenation is successfully performed

  • False – if the invalid or empty input provided

  • None/Blank: if the invalid string range is provided (only one string)

Example 2

Concatenate the First Name and Last Name Using the space

The Concatenate action takes the value from the Input Value column (John; Doe) and concatenates the two strings separated by a semicolon. In this case, the space after the semicolon is already provided in the input value (John; Doe), so the result becomes John Doe.

The combined string (John Doe) is stored in the {Combined value} variable, while the operation status is stored in the {status} variable with the following possible values:

  • True – if the concatenation is successfully performed

  • False – if the invalid or empty input provided

  • None/Blank: if the invalid string range is provided (only one string)
