Slice Function

The Slice function is used to extract a specific part of a string or number.

Use Case

If you receive an Order ID like:

123456789

but only need the last four digits (6789), you can use the Slice function.

Syntax

slice(input; start; end)

• input → Order ID

• start → Index to begin extraction

• end → (Optional) Leave empty to extract till the end

Example

slice(order_id;5;)

Here, 5 skips the first five digits and extracts everything after that.

Click Run and Save, and the output will show only the last four digits.
