Separate text when pulled in from an API

Hi Guys,
I’m struggling to find a solution to the following problem.
Summary
1 -I want to pull in a list of ingredients from a website using a URL
2 - I want to output the listen of ingredients based on how many are available.
3- When I pull them in they come in without spaces.

I want to separate the ingredients and the instructions.

Thank you for the help

Hi, @kylesjatkinson1!

We have already discussed your use case via chat. That’s why I just duplicate the answer that was given in the chat so other users can see it.

"Thanks for the details! I’m sorry to hear that you have difficulties to achieve your goal with extracting data, but I’m afraid I cannot provide here the exact working solution as it’s more related to the bubble functionality rather that on our products, sorry. Anyway, please take a look at this video tutorial regarding the API connector, that might be helpful:
