You can access different methods and properties on tag values. For example, you can bring a string to the lowercase, get a day, month or year from a date, get a number of items in an array.
Value properties work the same in DOCX, XLSX and PPTX templates.
Just use dot after tag value as in the example below:
Template |
Data |
Result |
|---|---|---|
{{stringVal.ToLower}}
{{dateVal.Year}}
{{arrayVal.Length}}
|
{
"stringVal": "Jessica Adams",
"dateVal": "2012-04-21T18:25:43-05:00",
"arrayVal": [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
}
