Here is one workaround:
1. Create variable called, for example, test1;
2. Create variable called, for example, test2;
3. Set test1 variable to your multiple choice field value (it will be automatically put in "Apply to each"):
3.1. Name = test1 variable + delimiter (in my case delimiter is coma);
3.2. Value = yuor multiple choice field.
4. Right after setting test1 variable add action "Append to string variable":
4.1. Name = test2 variable;
4.2. Value = test1 variable.
5) Put output of "Append to string variable" wherever you need.
See screenshot with example.
- Lachlan HughesSep 28, 2018Copper ContributorA bit of a long way to do it, but works perfectly.
As a side not, you only need one "test1" variable if you are doing this to multiple multiple choice fields
ie
create test1
create choiceField1
create choiceField2
create choiceField3
Apply to each
Name = test1 variable
Value = your multiple choice field + delimiter (in my case delimiter is coma);
Right after setting test1 variable add action "Append to string variable":
Name = choiceField1 variable;
Value = test1 variable.

Thanks but the document I linked to back in January worked just fine.
