Adding Multiple Lines/Line Breaks to a Description using Flow Designer
This is just a quick article which I hope people will find useful.
I was using Flow Designer to populate a task record's Description field using the "Create Task Record" action that comes with the Flow Designer Service Catalog plugin.
I needed to insert line-breaks into the Description field so that I could separate fields from the Catalog Variables - for example:
Do something with this Widget.
Name of submitter:
Name of widget:
After getting some helpful suggestions online (hi SNdevs!) I found a solution for adding line breaks was to encapsulate the entire string (including data pills) in a Javascript string using \n line breaks.
For example, the syntax for the above description would be:
javascript: "Do something with this Widget. \n Name of Submitter: {{submitter data pill}} \n Name of Widget: {{widgetname data pill}}"
I hope someone else finds this useful!
