Using a Drop Down Menu to Update a Formula

[Marcus_Rehnberg42]

I have been trying to use a Drop Down menu to update/replace the result of a formula. When I run the attached workflow, it keeps giving me a Parse Error - Unknown variable for the selection that I made. Why does Alteryx think I'm selecting a variable and not a String? How do I fix it?

Hi @Marcus_Rehnberg42 

Remove the quotes in the 'replace a specific string' section. Your dropdown doesn't have the value with quotes so instead of having your formula tool say 'Medium' it is going in as just Medium and Alteryx can't interpret that.

Yes, that fixed it.  Thank you.
