string

To convert a given value to a string

This function will return the data of a field or an array as text. It’s a little bit like the function concat(). 
If you use this function on a multiple-choice field, it will return the hexadecimal value of that field.
Syntax
string(any)
Return 
string 
Examples 
string('New Year''s Eve') 
Result: 1640905200000 with the date field “New Year’s Eve” as Dec 31, 2021
​
string('Favorite sports') 
Result: d1 (see the example for chosen(), where Basketball, Dancing, Sailing, and Soccer are chosen, but not Climbing) 
Note: Unlike text() , the function string() doesn’t take the format into account.
See also 
​concat, which returns all items of an array in one string.
