Need instructions on doing inline text escape (and the reverse as well) for JSON and XML so that value can be incorporated into other JSON or JSONL file. Please provide instructions.

Hi, for this case we usually recommend avoiding manual inline escaping whenever possible.
If you have an object value and want to use it as text inside another JSON, JSONL, or structured payload, you can assign that object data to a String variable and then use that string variable in the target payload. This allows the object content to be handled as a string value instead of manually adding escape characters.
If you keep the data as an Object, you normally should not need to deal with escape characters manually, because the platform handles the object structure directly.
For XML scenarios, we generally manage the XML by using the Object App > Convert XML to Object action first. After converting the XML into an object, you can work with the data in a more structured way. For more complex or custom transformation cases, Python can also be used.
Iām also attaching two screenshots showing an example of how object data can be managed, including the input and output.
If you have a specific use case or sample input/output, please share it, and we can suggest the most suitable approach for that exact scenario.
