How to get multi-line text g_form variable values from catalog item to workflow script?

Can you please define the variable 'getList' as var getList = current.variables.get_name; instead of what is now and give it a try?

hope this helps. Please mark correct/helpful based on impact

However the second log from lines doesn't print anything
