Workflows: Grabbing text parts into separate variables
-
Hi, I created this workflow that takes input from a set of fields and outputs it into the built in "input" variable that gets used in generating a file name in a "create document" action. So for instance, In the UI form output section, I have the field vavariables being used in this format to generate a file name in the "create document" action: scene_title-scene_setting-scene_location-scene_env.
In addition to the file name generation from the input variable from the UI form, I want to generate another text output line for the content section of the "create document" action from the indivudal inputs of each field of the UI form. I want a markdown header that has a different separator from the file name separator that I stylized in the output part of the UI form: scene_title.scene_setting.scene_location.scene_env.
My question is: is there a way to store individual form parts from a UI form into separate variables so that can be used in the next action so I can generate a custom title with custom separators?

Ok I figured it out. It looks like I need to set some variables for each input and do a search and replace on it, output it as a new variable and then generate the document. The work flow is updated with the new modifications.
