URGENT: Help In String Manipulation in PowerApps

Hi Experts,

I really need your URGENT help with one requirement. Please help ASAP.

So, basically I have all user's comments within a string. String Example:

 

2023-07-23 09:19:38 - System Administrator (Additional comments)
requesting the new update frp, powerapps

2023-02-20 10:05:40 - glide.maint (Additional comments)
Exchange server unavailable. Ping does not respond, and lots of
 users calling in about it looks to be San
 Diego, building 3, floor 4
 that's affected.

 

Now, what I want is I want to store these details within a collection but before doing that I want to manipulate and refine the string like it should be something like this:

Date - useranme (Additional Comments)
UserComments

 

For Example:

The table should consist of 2 columns:

Date - username (additional comments)

Comments

 

See Below, If I take the 2nd user comments from the top comments list:

 

2023-02-20 10:05:40 - glide.maint (Additional comments)
Exchange server unavailable. Ping does not respond, and lots of
users calling in about it looks to be San
Diego, building 3, floor 4
that's affected.

 

It should first store 2023-02-20 10:05:40 - glide.maint (Additional comments) which is a first linen Column 1 and then the second line with removing all the line breaks and trimmed in Column 2 as  Exchange server unavailable. Ping does not respond, and lots of users calling in about it looks to be SanDiego, building 3, floor 4 that's affected.

 

 

 

Hope you understood the requirement. Please help. I am in urgent need for the resolution.
