Replace Text

The Replace Text step allows users to replace a configured text value with a newly determined value. 

In versions prior to v9.3 the input property "Replace With" could not be set to Null or Ignore, otherwise the step would fail. In v9.3 and later versions the "Replace With" property can be set to Null or Ignore and it will replace the required text with blank spaces.

Setting the "Replace With" input property to Null or Ignore will throw an error for any version below v9.3.
