  • ✅ Convert text to uppercase from any [Payload][body] or [Context][] in any Log Event
  • ✅ Standardize text for consistent data processing and case-insensitive comparisons
  • ✅ Transform and surface meaningful data in Nodinite Log Views, search filters, and self-service diagnostics
  • ✅ Combine with other Formula functions for powerful, layered expressions

What does the toUpperCase Formula do?

The toUpperCase(Content) Formula function converts all letters in the provided text to uppercase. Use this function to ensure data consistency across systems, especially when case sensitivity matters.

How it works: Input ➜ toUpperCase ➜ Result

graph LR A["Input: lowercase or MixedCase text"] --> B["toUpperCase(Content)"] B --> C["Result: UPPERCASE text"]

Flow: All letters in the content are converted to uppercase.

touppercase(jsonpath('$.path', body))

Common patterns:

touppercase(body)                         # Convert entire message to uppercase
