Converting Hexadecimal to Text

I have a hexadecimal value '50C8BDA0' that I need to convert to it's text value. I have many unknown values but this is my test case. It should be '1355333024'. According to Hexed.it, it's UTF-32 bit Big Endian format.

I have tried various combos of binarydecoder, textdecoder, etc. and cannot figure it out. Does someone know the right steps? Excel and Windows Calculator do it automatically the first time so I must be missing something.

Hi @k1,

The BaseConverter transformer can convert the hex number into its base 10 equivalent. Please set the Original Base to 16 and the Destination Base to 10.
