How do you separate each character from a string?

1
I am working on a project that uses an Enumeration with a list of 5 letter words and a microflow to retrieve a word from the list at random. Once the word is retrieved in a microflow, I need to separate each character of the word (example: Apple, needs to be broken into A/P/P/L/E) I think the difficulty is because the word is generated at random. How would I go about this? I looked into Substrings and into community commons but haven’t been able to figure it out.

Try the StringSplit java action in CommunityCommons, pass your random string as inputString parameter and an empty string (‘’, that is, not “empty”) as splitParameter. You should get a list of SplitItems with a character as the value.

Hi Curtis,

Find the length of the string using that while loop with length > 0 and use substring(string, length-1, 1). 

Refer the below mentioned question, in that you can find the way to separate the characters.
