Build Text Collection from Field

Build a text collection from field values in a record collection
Takes a collection of records as input and the name of a field and builds a text collection containing the values of the specified field.
If you specify unique as true, the collection will only contain unique values, removing duplicates.
For example, if you specify input as a collection of Leads and field as Email, this will generate a collection containing a list of email addresses. Depending on the value for unique, duplicate email addresses will be removed.
