I am trying to retrieve the entity records using fetch xml/ liquid within a web template. This works fine accept that for one decimal field, I am getting the below error.

Liquid error: Object of type 'System.Decimal' cannot be converted to type 'System.String'.

How do we convert decimal objects to string in liquid?

I am referring this blog post: dyn365apps.com/.../dynamics-365-portals-liquid-templates-part-3-retrieve-data-using-fetchxml

Here is my current liquid code. new_amount is the decimal field

===

{% for result in my_query.results.entities %}

<h1> {{ result.new_name | escape }} </h1>

<h2> {{ result.new_amount | escape }} </h2>

</div>

{% endfor %}

It turns out that we can simply convert it decimal to string as follows-

{{ result.new_amount | string }}
