Posted on by NewCoder 7

HI How do you convert a guid into a string? 

  • "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000" (hyphens in standard locations)
  • "123e4567e89b12d3a456426655440000" (no hyphens) 
concat(substring(variables('GUID String'),0,8)) > Right now this only comes with 4 numbers

    Hi NewCoder,

    Please try this expression: replace(variables('GUID String'),'-','')

    I created a http trigger to test and it can work:
