This appears to be a bug with the front-end validation in the activity. Reference ID 261985.

There are 2 workarounds:

  • Add an Assign Tokens activity and create 2 tokens. One set to just " and another set to "". Use these tokens to specify the old and new values in Substitute.
  • Use the Split token function on your string to break it up every time there's a " and then put it back together using "" as delimiter

Hi Miruna,

 

Thanks for your help. The first solution is working. I didn't try the last one.
