Reading subject of e-mail and replacing and found characters

[Anonymous]

I wrote a Flow for our Sales team and am now expanding it. The requirement is that the Flow must read the email subject line and search for and replace any of the below characters. We're just replacing with an underscore for now. The issue is that I cannot find a way to make this work. Any thoughts? I tried some loops, creating variables and then reading an array, etc. None of these work. Thoughts?

@contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '.'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '@'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '`'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '='),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '('),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], ')'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '&'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '$'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '~'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '#'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '%'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '*'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], ':'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], ','),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '?'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '/'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], '|'),contains(triggerBody()?['Subject'], ' '))

Hi @Anonymous 

Define an array with all the special characters. Then add a for each action loop to iterate each special characters. Then check via a condition contains the special character against email subject. Then under the yes condition add a replace function with underscore. You need the following actions:

1. Array

2. For Each Loop

3 If Condition

4 Compare special character from the loop vs subject 

5 Use expression replace function for underscore replacement

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,

As suggested by abm, you could refer to the following methods to configure Flow.

replace(outputs('Compose'),items('Apply_to_each'),'_')

Please take a try.

Thanks so much @v-bacao-msft! That got me well on the way! I found a way to make it work, but it was ugly. This is more fluid and efficient. Thanks to the both of you for your willingness to assist!
