## Overview

| ## Example Lab Details |
| --- |
| **Version** | 6.10.2 |
| **Root Folder** | Example Lab - Merge List of Strings to Single String on New Line |
| **Modules** | None |
| **Dependencies** | None |

This Example Lab demonstrates how to take a list of Strings, and merge them on new lines in a single String. It then shows that single String on a Form.

---

## Explanation

This flow works by taking in a List of Strings that will be merged into a single String with the items on new lines. This works by using the For Each Step to iterate through all of the Strings in the list. As each iteration occurs the Flow will add the current string to a separate string using the **Merge Text Editor** on the **Create Data Step**. When viewed on the form, the single string appears to show a list of items, but it is a single String being inputted into the form and not the String list.
