I need to turn a string field value into an integer, how do I do that?

The Numerify Function converts event fields that are numbers to type number .

Extract numeric values from event fields


Another way to do this with JavaScript code is to use the Number class or the Unary plus operator.

Number(field) or +field are equivalent.

If you have a hexadecimal number, you can use the Number.parseInt() function to convert from base 16 to base 10 (decimal).

Number.parseInt(field, 16)
