Use alternative separators with split text?

#1

Hi,
I am using ‘split text’ to split a date entry like “July 22 until July 23” into arrival date (“July 22”) and departure date (“July 23”). For now I have defined “until” as the separator in the split text function.

Is there any way I can make the bot understand alternative separators too, like “till” or “to” or “-” at the same time?

Thank you for your support!

Hi Tobias,

Unfortunately the split function within Flow XO can only support you entering the actual value you want to split a message on.

You could perhaps have multiple split actions in your flow that are then filtered on if the message contatins whichever option, although this could cause issues when you come to use the results to ensure the correct actions results are used. :thinking:
