Rename Job replacing forward slashes with underscores

Post by AndrewFriedman »

Hello,

I noticed that whenever I send my jobs through the rename job element it will turn my forward slashes into underscores. In my sample value box, it has forward slashes but when I run the flow it will turn them into underscores. I'm assuming that there is some setting that changes special characters that Switch doesn't like into underscores. Is there a way that I can change this?

Thank you

Each element in a flow is a folder in the Switch folders in which the job passes.
That's why you can't use a forward slash as the name for an element since that will men that you split the name of that folder in to two folders
