It would be great if there was a split function added to the capabilities of a transformation task within a bionic rule.

I have a situation where I am trying to parse the information from a field that contains multiple comma-separated values. For example, the data for a given record may look like this: "Phoenix,Seattle,Los Angeles"

Using the Right and Left function, I am currently only able to isolate the values "Phoenix" and "Los Angeles".

Introducing a Split function, or something similar, would allow users to specify the separating character, a comma in my example, and could output the data above into three different fields.

    I guess I shouldn’t have said anything here because now this capability is gone.

    I know this is an old request, but this just came up again. When I Googled for a solution, I was lead to my own Community Post. Hah!

    I’m now working in JO with a dataset that includes multiple email addresses all delimited with a semicolon. Since I don’t know how many addresses there are, I’m forced to handle this processing outside of HRE/JO.
