Remove accents

[Lyoto]

Hello,

I’m looking for a solution to remove the accents from a sentence coming from a STRING “Text” set.

Example: J’ai été à la pêche. → J’ai ete a la peche.

Do you have any idea how to do this?

Thanks

Hi @Lyoto

(I’m not familiar with these accent words or letters)

The simple workaround is to use External Modules to get your job done.

You need this package.

remove-accents

You can refer to this thread for setting up this package.

[HELP] Not been able to import external modules

Could you suggest a way I can make this work with the Docker container, please? Or, will this only work with standalone installs?

Once this package is installed and loaded, We can use the Function node to solve your use-case

Note:

Please update your question with the n8n version, n8n platform (npm, docker, desktop).

This worked for me:

.replaceSpecialChars()

Hello refix, How can we use remove accents on n8n ?
