Concatenate multiple fields to create a new custom field

[Ankit_Kacker]

Do we have an option while creating a custom field where we can concatenate using multiple pre-defined fields.
E.g. If I have fields available like Assignee , Priority, Field1, Field2, etc. and I want to create new field column Field3 which will formulate as ‘Assignee_Priority_Field1_Field2’.
I saw an option to do similar thing in Task title by selecting fields to be used but it does so by comma separator e.g. ‘Assignee , Priority, Field1, Field2’

Welcome, @Ankit_Kacker,

You can create a custom field of type text and then use a rule with + Variables to concatenate other fields in it as an action:

You’re not restricted to a comma; what you cited is actually in the Form settings tab for a form, where you are only allowed to use the comma there.

Thanks,

Thanks @ipb,
This is helpful. Only challenge is when I apply this rule to make Title update with fields and use _ as separator, some fields are multi selection drop down type, so in such cases for multiple selection of field options still comma is used as separator. Is there a work around to replace those comma as underscore(_)

Ah, just for the multi-select case; I see. I’m afraid that’s not an option to change the comma there. All I can think of is use of a connector app like Zapier or make.com, but that would be a lot of extra work.

@Phil_Seeman, does Flowsana.net offer this?

does Flowsana.net offer this?

No, unfortunately it doesn’t allow for customizing the multi-select separator, either; it uses a semicolon, not a comma, but that’s fixed.
