Hi every one,
I'm having a text string as example:
{"Status":"Active","updatedBy":"lynn123","hasAccount":false}
What I expect to have is:
Status: Active
updatedBy: lynn123
hasAccount: no
I think for replacing comma with a line-break, char(10) might work, then I will substitute false with "no". But for the rest of characters {,},"", I'm not sure how to remove them all at once. I checked documentary for a!stripWith or a!reject and I think they don't work with a list of characters.
Hope I can have some suggestions from you,
Thanks a lot!

As Stefen Suggested, Use fromJson and then use index functionality to get the particular value based on the key.
Thanks Deepak, the problem is that I need to apply the functions to all rows in a forEach loop, and not all of them have the same index for those characters to use index function :(
Hi mollyn126,
below snippet might helpful for your case
substitute( stripwith( tostring( { "Status": "Active", "updatedBy": "lynn123", "hasAccount": false } ), "[]" ), ",", char(10))
I'm not sure why you are trying to convert the dictionary (fromJson()) to a string before iterating through it in a!forEach()?
What are you expecting for a final output, is this for display/rich text field, dictionary, etc?
a!localVariables( local!json: "[{""Status"":""Active"",""updatedBy"":""lynn123"",""hasAccount"":""false""}]", local!data: a!fromJson(local!json), a!forEach( items: local!data, expression: { /* process each item here */ fv!item } ) )
