This invocable Flow action lets you encapsulate or wrap single or double quotes around any Text Collection variable or Text variable that is comma-separated This can be useful for JSON paylouts or more importantly to feed values into the ExecuteSOQL action. This pairs exceptionally well with the ‘ExtractStringsFromCollection’ action. The most common use case for this will be running ‘ExtractStringsFromCollection’ on a record collection to get a comma-separated string of IDs, then running this action to feed into ExecuteSOQL.

Example: 0012030203aFs,00135353dascCS becomes ‘0012030203aFs,’00135353dascCS’ In SOQL: Select Name,Type from Account where Id in (‘0012030203aFs,’00135353dascCS’)
