HI @sangasangasanga,

Use matches activity & provide pattern
Then use for each it will work

@varunk I did that too. But no result is coming.

@varunk your sample works fine. When I modify it, it doesn’t work.

My pattern:

(?<=Identity.type\n).+?(\n)(?=Identity.number)

My test text:

Question & response
Identity type
Singapore Pink NRIC
Identity number

Hi @sangasangasanga,

Try this Pattern
Identity type - I[a-z]\st[a-z]|
Identity number -[a-z]\sn[a-z]

nope :frowning: doesn’t work either

hey @sangasangasanga

done. :slight_smile:
there’s small change in pattern,
check this attachment Test.zip (10.7 KB)

I hope this will help you. :slight_smile:

Hi samir, yours work. If it is okay, could you explain how the below pattern worked when the above pattern did not?

“((?<=Identity.type)|).+?(\n)(?=Identity.number)”

12

hey @sangasangasanga
here’s the explaination:
ab

So basically, I know usually we use “|” to specify OR.
but here I tried this (|) for making two groups,
grp
and it worked. :slight_smile:
this website helped me…
