Are you trying to replace a double quote with a single quote using Power Automate?

I will help you with this.

In this tutorial, I will explain how to replace double quotes with single quotes using Power Automate.

Replace Double Quote with Single Quote using Power Automate

To explain this example, I will manually take a text string surrounded by double quotes. Below, you can see the string with double quotes:

"Product Name" : "Laptop", "Price" : "75000", "Warranty" : "2 Years"

Now, I wanted to replace the double quotes in the string mentioned above with single quotes using Power Automate.

Check out the steps below to know how to do it:

1. Open the Power Automate Home page by typing make.powerautomate.com in the browser. Click on “+ Create” and then select “Instant Cloud Flow.” Select ‘Manually trigger a flow,’ and then click the Create button.
2. Then, declare a text string value in a variable that can be used in the following steps. So, add an ‘Initialize variable‘ action and set the name for the variable, type as ‘String‘, and value with the text mentioned above.

3. After that, take a ‘Compose‘ action to use the replace() expression that replaces double quotes with single quotes.
   • Inputs: Insert the expression placed in the code below.

replace(variables('VarProducts'),'"','''')

Note:

To replace the double quotes with single quotes in a string, you need to use two single quotes in the replace expression. 

The flow is completed now.

4. Next, click on the save icon to save the flow. Test the flow. On the Runflow window, select the Manual radio button, and click on the Runflow button.
5. When the flow is executed, check the compose outputs for the result obtained. Refer to the image below.

Output: Replaced string with single quotes
