Uipath string null

Best way to check string has value or not -->

enter image description here


These are some of the ways it can be checked.

1.

String.IsNullOrEmpty(yourString)

2.

yourString.Equals("")

3.

yourString.Equals(Nothing)

4.

yourString is Nothing

5.

String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(yourString)

There are logical OR, AND and NOT to combine the different checks and they can clubbed together to check the best way to find out blank, null and whitespace string.


There are many different approaches and ideas, but – according to me – what you can do is:

  1. Always make sure before to define any variable by default, initialize it with empty strings(""). So it will be easy to check it with equal operator as well.

  2. The Other approaches you can take in Uipath is based on .Net So u can use it's Is Nothing.

  3. You can also use .Net String.IsNullOrEmpty Method (String) Method.


To check if a string variable is Null, you need to use either an If or Decision activity. The condition of those should be:

a is Nothing

This will return true if variable a is null and false otherwise
