Posted on by elaaadani 265

I would like to ask for help with this !
I am separating this string by this \

 

176931_\\10.1.1.206\Storage\pdf\1100-LEG\34_17584.pdf

 


I want to get this string 

 

1100-LEG

 

(the number will always be changing, 1100-LEG, 2100-LEG, 4322-LEG) and save it in a variable

    Use below expression

     

    ; where you replace outputs('Compose_2') with your variable or compose data operation

    split(outputs('Compose_2'),'\')[5]
