How to dividing variable into two parts

Ari Raatikainen

Let's assume the variable {{example}} outputs the values 'KEY-1, KEY-2, KEY-3, KEY-4'. This variable is created to store object keys from lookupObjects.

Using the split function or other text string functions, how can we split the content of the variable {{example}} in half so that the first part {{part1}} outputs 'KEY-1, KEY-2' and the second part {{part2}} outputs 'KEY-3, KEY-4'?

The solution should be applicable regardless of how many keys {{example}} contains, whether it be any number between 1 and 100.

Hi @Ari Raatikainen

As creating a variable puts out as a string, I think it should be possible to the use the variable with the split option.

I currently have not time to test this myself, but I hope this might help you forward.

Hi @Ari Raatikainen

That smart function that @Marc -Devoteam- provided should work in the case you want to split each value of that array. But you say you want to split it in the middle. And when you say middle, you mean the middle of the array size? What define "middle" for you?

Hi @Alex Koxaras -Relational-

You are correct - I don't want split each value but split values in the middle of the array.

So if array values are: KEY-1, KEY-2, KEY-3, KEY-4 the middle is then comma after KEY-2

and if there is odd number of values e.g. KEY-1, KEY-2, KEY-3, KEY-4, KEY-5 the middle is comma after KEY-3.

Hi, see my reply to @Alex Koxaras -Relational- - I am not looking for solution to split each value. Thanks.

Hi @Ari Raatikainen

Then there is no solution ,as the comma is the only divider.

A Variable is a text string, so there is no option to determine the middle.
