# Convert to Text

> Coerce a workflow value into text.

The **Convert to Text** action turns an incoming value into a string. Use it
when a later action requires text but the current value is a number, boolean,
or another coercible type.

## Inputs

| Input     | Type | Required | Description           |
| --------- | ---- | -------- | --------------------- |
| **Value** | Any  | Yes      | The value to convert. |

## Outputs

| Output   | Type   | Description               |
| -------- | ------ | ------------------------- |
| **Text** | String | The coerced string value. |

Common primitive conversions include `42` → `"42"` and `true` → `"true"`.

<Warning>
  Conversion is not JSON serialization. Complex values may not produce the
  structured text you expect; serialize them explicitly when the exact format
  matters.
