doesn’t work, what’s wrong? This codes try to get 5 embbeded variables, evaluate if they are not empty, if they have a text then put in an array, use this array to create a new embbeded variable with the combination of the each embbeded variable, if there are more than one embbeded variables with text, it joins and includes and “and” to make sense to the message and separate by commas.
