Thanks for reply.

 

In this screenshot, I eventually want to write the mobile phone number returned in this web service to an Excel report created by a Data Sink. A value may or may not be returned by the web service. If a value is not returned, I would like to write a blank value to the report instead of the value indicated by the red arrow in the second screenshot.

Currently the value indicated by the red arrow is what will be written to the output by the Data Sink. I would replace that with a blank, should no valid mobile phone number be returned.

This is the value written to the Excel report by the Data Sink.

Thanks for the explanation. I’ve reproduced the same issue on my computer and reported this behavior to our R&D Team. Let’s wait for the solution from them.

      Hi Yakima,

       

      Sorry that it took me so long to get back to you.

      I wanted to let you know that our R&D Team had confirmed this issue and created a report: SOAP-5128

      I hope it will be fixed soon.
