Error handling

Parameter Name

Description

Throw error & stop

When an error occurs, the action will trigger an error and stop the execution of the entire app.

Retry command

If an error occurs, the action will retry the command in an attempt to resolve the issue and continue the process.

Ignore error & continue

When an error occurs, the action will be ignored, and the workflow will continue without interruption.

Variables produced

This action produces a variable that contains the converted text with the new case formatting. The output variable stores the text after the case transformation has been applied.


Using Variables in Conditions

When configuring this action, you can use variables for the "Text to convert" parameter by clicking the {x} button. This allows you to dynamically process text that was captured or generated in previous steps of your workflow.

Variables can be particularly useful when you need to standardize text formatting across your automation process or prepare text for specific output requirements.


Notes

  • Upper case: Converts all characters to uppercase (e.g., "hello world" becomes "HELLO WORLD")

  • Lower case: Converts all characters to lowercase (e.g., "Hello World" becomes "hello world")

  • Title case: Capitalizes the first letter of each word (e.g., "hello world" becomes "Hello World")

  • Sentence case: Capitalizes only the first letter of the first word (e.g., "hello world" becomes "Hello world")

  • This command only affects letter characters; numbers and special characters remain unchanged

  • For languages with special characters or non-Latin alphabets, ensure your system supports the appropriate character encoding
