Combine Text

Combine Text lets you join two separate pieces of text into a single block of text.
You can choose what character or string separates the two parts, or leave it as a space if you prefer.

How it Works

When you give the component two text inputs, it simply puts them together in the order you provided.
The separator you choose (the Delimiter) is inserted between the first and second text.
If you leave the delimiter blank, the component uses a single space by default.
Everything happens right inside the dashboard—no external services are called.

Inputs

  • Delimiter: A string used to separate the two text inputs. Defaults to a whitespace.
  • First Text: The first text input to concatenate.
  • Second Text: The second text input to concatenate.

Outputs

  • Combined Text: A single text block that contains First Text, the Delimiter, and Second Text in that order.
    This output can be fed into other components, displayed to the user, or stored for later use.

Usage Example

  1. Drag the Combine Text component onto your workflow.
  2. Enter “Hello” in First Text.
  3. Enter “World” in Second Text.
  4. Leave Delimiter as the default space or change it to “—”.
  5. Connect the Combined Text output to a Display Text component to show the result.
    • With the default space, the output will be “Hello World”.
    • With “—” as the delimiter, the output will be “Hello—World”.
  • Split Text – Breaks a single string into parts based on a delimiter.
  • Uppercase Text – Converts text to all capital letters.
  • Lowercase Text – Converts text to all lower‑case letters.
  • Trim Text – Removes leading and trailing spaces from a string.

Tips and Best Practices

  • Use a clear delimiter (e.g., “|” or “—”) when you need to separate items that might contain spaces.
  • If either input can be empty, the component will still add the delimiter, so consider adding a check or using a conditional component to avoid unwanted separators.
  • Keep the delimiter short to avoid cluttering the combined text.

Security Considerations

This component only processes text locally and does not send data outside the dashboard. No special security settings are required.
