[Create a new Flow.](/version-10/docs/create-flows) 2. In the step toolbox, expand **Data > Text** category 3. Add the **Merge String Lists by Line** step into the workspace. 4. Define the inputs for the two lists. This example uses two **Constant** lists. 5. Define the separator value![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1778790990032.png) 6. Debug and run the Flow. The output will display the list values combined into a single list.![](https://cdn.document360.io/6ef8bcc1-6489-4486-9ad1-83acff7e5df0/Images/Documentation/image-1778791035906.png)
