is Ruby function succ is available to use on workato and how?

Not applicable
succ → new_str

Returns the successor to str. The successor is calculated by incrementing characters starting from the rightmost alphanumeric (or the rightmost character if there are no alphanumerics) in the string. Incrementing a digit always results in another digit, and incrementing a letter results in another letter of the same case. Incrementing nonalphanumerics uses the underlying character set’s collating sequence.

"abcd".succ        #=> "abce"
"THX1138".succ     #=> "THX1139"
"<<koala>>".succ   #=> "<<koalb>>"
"1999zzz".succ     #=> "2000aaa"
"ZZZ9999".succ     #=> "AAAA0000"
"***".succ         #=> "**+"

Error: I would like to get next number from "SO012501" to "SO012502"

The succ method isn't supported in the in-line Ruby (in formulas and variables), but it is supported in the Ruby action.

Create a Ruby action with an input called "str" and and output called "result" and then use this code snippet:

 

{result: input["str"].succ}
