PDI: Create text using tab delimiter

[former_member262937]

Hi all,

Using PDI in Cloud Application Studio:

I need to send data as JSON and it needs to use a tab delimiter. With other delimiters in the past, such as a semi colon, I've hardcoded ie:

Data1 + ";" + Data2 + ";"

Is this possible with tab? My understanding is I cannot hardcode it as the tab size will vary based on the data

Hi Katie,

I am not sure if this works in ABSL. Have you tried using the delimiter \t as an approach similar like it is possible to use it in JavaScript?

var s = "text" + "\t" + "text"
