Resolve term internal value from managed metadata
Resolves the internal values of a taxonomy field in this format: “WSSID;#VAL|GUID.”
This is necessary because SharePoint workflows use different formats to get and set managed metadata field values. When retrieving a managed metadata field value, SharePoint returns the format “VAL|GUID.” When setting a value, the format “WSSID;#VAL|GUID” is required, where WSSID is the ID of the associated row in the hidden taxonomy list.
Note: This activity automatically creates a WssId for terms that are not yet referenced from the site.
