All,

I would like to create a new compose step to only parse "Meeting Test". I would like to remove the other characters. Does anyone know how I can achieve this?

What if the variables will change too

LAN-CEC: Test2

The LAN-CEC: will always remain but the other text will constantly change. How would I split this?

See example below.

Compose contains your data (which could change).

Compose 2 splits the output from Compose, then gets the last item and trims any extra spaces.
trim(last(split(outputs('Compose'), ':')))

The output from Compose 2 in this example would be:

If the data in Compose changed then Compose 2 would get that data.
