You can use the Formatter by Zapier Numbers action event with the Format Number transform option to adjust the format of numbers.

  • When you want to change the format of a number using groupings with a comma, such as 1,000,000, so that it uses spaces, such as 1 000 000
  • When you want to change the format of a number where no thousands separators are present, such as 1000000...
