Answered Data manipulation functions doesn't work

    I am trying to use the built-in data manipulation functions i System Center Orchestartor 2012. The problem is that they doesn't parse. The output is the same as the function.

    Ex. [Field('text1;text2',';',1)] returns [Field('text1;text2',';',1)] instead of text1 as it should. And a simple one as [Upper('text')] just returns [Upper('text')].

    Am I missing some configuration or maybe an integration pack?

    Hi, could you post a screen of your config of the send platform event activity or post the exact config? When you get the pure text instead of the function it is often becurse you are missing some of the  ( ) or [ ]. You have configured the data manipulation feature incorrect in some way. For example when you use "TEXT" from the data bus you dont need '' around it, as you do when you write 'My text'

    Thanks alot

    You were right. I carefully examined my config and noticed that I had missed one ')' on one of my [field()] functions. That made it so none of the following functions worked.

    Thanks again :)
