I have a column that is automatically copied using nintex from the ""email from" column and contains a email address in this format:

<XX-Name.Name@Name.com>.

When I include this column in a notification action in nintex the column is not populated when the notification is received.

However if I manually take out the < and> then it will populate.

How can I remove the < and > using Nintex?

Thanks

Hi Michelle Goodman,

1. Try to get your email output in a workflow variable (Single line of text) called 'txtNumber'.

2. Use Regular expression action to remove < > symbol as follows.

Replacement text: just give a white space.

Input text: 'WorkflowVariable:txtNumber' is your <XX_Name.Name@Name.com>.

Store result in: same workflow variable 'txtNumber'.

Thanks,

Lakshmi Narayana C
