Distinct and Sort Methods for String Lists in Expressions

String List collections in expressions now offer a Distinct method to eliminate duplicate values from the list.  A Sort method is also available to enable ordering of the values in a string list.  The string list object can either be a List data type property or one that is returned from a method for a node collection or string value.

Business Benefit: When string lists are being combined using a derived property or property transformation, duplicate items can be removed in the returned value as necessary.  String list values can also be ordered in ascending or descending order when appropriate.
