# StringBuilder connector methods

# StringBuilder connector methods {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
The StringBuilder connector methods enable you to create, append, update, replace, or remove strings in your automation workflow in RPA Desktop Design Studio.

## Append {#connector-stringbuilder-methods__section_znm_4km_prb}

Adds string to an existing string. You can create multiple strings by using multiple copies of the method. To view the output, use the ToString method.  
Note:  
The method doesn't insert a line between the strings.
{#connector-stringbuilder-methods__table_jnw_jn1_krb__entry__4}

| Parameter name | Description | Data Port type | Data type |
|-|-|-|-|
| Value | The string to be appended to the existing content. Example :   Existing string: "Hello"Value: " World!" Output: Hello World! | Data In | String |
[Table 1. Append method parameters]

## AppendLine {#connector-stringbuilder-methods__section_ljd_knm_prb}

Adds a string followed by a newline character (\\n) automatically. When you add multiple strings using multiple copies of the method, it inserts a line between the strings. It functions exactly like the
Enter key on a Microsoft Word document. To view the output, use the ToString method.
{#connector-stringbuilder-methods__table_k3r_mks_32c__entry__4}

| Parameter name | Description | Data Port type | Data type |
|-|-|-|-|
| Value | String to append followed by a line break. Example :   Existing string: "Hello"Value: "World!" Output: Hello World! | Data In | String |

## Replace {#connector-stringbuilder-methods__section_ssz_xrh_nsb}

Replaces a string with a string that you specify in both the Append and AppendLine methods.

| Parameter name | Description | Data Port type | Data type |
|-|-|-|-|
| OldValue | Existing string that is replaced with a string specified in the NewValue field. Example :   OldValue: User | Data In | String |
| NewValue | String that replaces the OldValue string. Example :   NewValue: Abel Tutor | Data In | String |
