Feature Request: Function to convert token from string with quotes to double quotes for searches

asked on March 6, 2014

 I was creating a workflow and I wanted to use a search but in testing, I found I needed to have the field value I use for the search in a new syntax. 

 

When a string comes through from the field with a quotation mark, the proper search syntax requires this to be a double quote in the string. Otherwise it will not be proper syntax. 

 

I would like to be able to edit a token to convert a string to proper search Syntax in workflow Designer so I can account for this type of situation.

2 new functions have been added for Workflow 9.2: EscapeSearchName, EscapeSearchPhrase. The first will format tokens used in field or template names, the second will do the same for token used in search values.
