Hi, I have always trouble using and reusing mapping Outputs in a job flow. In this example I have an Output of a mapping (Default string), that I want to use as a Parameter for another command-line call.
But I am struggling converting the result into a string. I searched in the documentation but I failed so far. The documentation isn't very helpful (at least for me). Can anyone help me how to convert a "result" into a "string" for reusing the Parameter in a next step?
Thanks in advance Michael Michael Mann attached the following image(s):

I redefine the question: Can I Setup an Output Parameter that works directly in a flow step? It seems that flow force can't directly reuse an Output Parameter from a mapping. Is that correct?

Concerning how to convert the output to string, use
Code:content(stdout(output))
where "output" is whatever you entered in "Assign this step's result" field. Examples:
