Can't use $ as dollar sign before amount since Zoho Flow thinks I'm pulling from value

Can't use $ as dollar sign before amount since Zoho Flow thinks I'm pulling from value

Hi Zoho Desk,

For my GMAIL Send Email Action. In the body, I want to pull the amount (number) from the trigger record, but I want to preface it with the "$" sign. So I specify in the Body of that Send Email action:

Payout Amount: $${trigger.Total_zf_Amount_zf_ACTUALLY_zf_PAID_customFields}


Notice that because of the dollar amount, there are now 2 $ next to each other. This is causing problems. When the email gets sent, all the other values get pulled in but for this part in the email it says:

Payout Amount: ${trigger.Total_zf_Amount_zf_ACTUALLY_zf_PAID_customFields}


What is the recommended way for me to use the $ followed by me pulling in a number from another place like the trigger record?
Does the "$" need to be returned by a custom function for this to work?
