The Replace Value in Column step enables you to replace a specific value within a cell, based on the input column of the given Excel file. This step requires you to define the Old Value and the New Value. It will then iterate through the values in the selected column and replace any instances of the Old Value with the New Value.

Important Considerations:

  • This step does not generate any output. Instead, it modifies the value within the same file that is being used within the Flow.

  • The values given under the "Old Value" field must be the entire cell value. It will not replace any partial values within the defined cell.
