Utils
Functions in the Utils category of the Studio fx menu handle everyday string, filter, escape, and conversion
tasks.
Start with the utilities you use most often:
- Find / Replace — replace matches in the input (including regex options).
- Filter — keep or drop lines that match a condition.
- Trim / Remove whitespace — clean surrounding or internal whitespace.
- Head / Tail — take the first or last lines.
- Escape string / Unescape string — escape or restore special characters.
Common reshape and convert helpers:
- Sort / Unique / Reverse — reorder or deduplicate delimited values.
- Count occurrences — count how often a string appears.
- Convert data units / Convert distance — unit conversion.
Open a function page from the sidebar for parameters, returned values, and examples. The transform functions overview also summarizes this category.
