toUpperCase (string)

Task Purpose

The toUpperCase task converts all the characters of an input string to uppercase. This task does not affect any characters that are already in uppercase.

Potential Use Case

This task returns a new string in which all the lowercase characters are converted. You could potentially use this method if a southbound database required a specific field to have all uppercase characters.

Properties

Example

In this example:

• The incoming variable for str is provided by the output of the NewVariable:myVariable reference task, which is located in another workflow.
• The reference variable provided by the reference task is value, which would be a string containing lowercase characters (e.g., itential,llc).
• With this example, the string value is converted to uppercase characters and the uppercaseString output should read as Itential,LLC.
