Help Something Else

Hello @sathish_Kumar6
Just use for each loop provide matches as input and for current item provide .tostring.
Remember (.tostring should be provided to only match variable type not matches.)

If you are having only one match…then matches activity actually gives to an output of the first or single string as well

You want to store that into an Array and then you can retrieve whatever values you need either by looping or indexing.

Thanks.

Use a for loop and give matches as in argument and change type argument to match

then inside loop use currentitem.value to get each matched value for each iteration

if you need all at once with comma separation use this

String.Join(",",matchesoutput.Cast(Of System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match).Select(function(x) x.value).ToArray)

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(“hello thre 532443 it the otp”,“\d”).ToArray
put Input text variable and replace \d with your expression. you will get the array.

Manupulate the array to get whatever output you want.
