Input choice

[Aleksandar1]

In my input file,some rows have dropdown list wtth 1,2 and 3 choices,i need solution to remove text from them throught workflow.

Looks like this 

1-some random text

2-other text

3- some other text 

User will choose some from that and throught workflow i need to get just 1,2 or 3 in output

Not very sure I understand you right... could you provide some sample data and what your expected output would look like?

Hi @Aleksandar1 you can use this formula in a formula tool to only get the first character in a field:
LEFT([Field],1)
