Step Details

Introduced in Version4.0.0
Last Modified in Version8.17.0
LocationData > Numbers

The Parse Number step will extract numbers from a specified String to convert to a decimal. It includes an option that will Convert Null Values to Zero.




Breaking Change:
Upgrading to v8.17 and above might cause a breaking change if the "Parse Number" step is used to parse a negative value to a positive value.

Example: If an input is -3.!14, then the output,
Before (v8.16 and lower): 3.14
After (v8.17 and above): -3.14
