Hi everyone can I get assistance please: I am reading an outlook email body:
This is the normal email before I use regex:

The image shows a message box displaying a letter from someone named Riana, inquiring about the status of a funeral benefit claim from her Ackermans Policy, mentioning a registration date of 7 May 2025 and expressing frustration over not receiving a response despite numerous calls.

Then after regex-it’s suppose to close all the spaces since I do not want any spaces but it does not it still the same as the above after I had used the regex see what I am using:

The image shows a code snippet where a string variable "StringBody" is assigned the result of a regex operation replacing a pattern in "APIEmail_body" with a space. (Captioned by AI)

Hi @Anelisa_Bolosha1

Try this

StringBody = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(APIEmail_body, "\s+", " ")

Hope this helps😇

Add on… the regex you have written is also correct and it should work
check variables you are checking. StringBody variable should contain the text with replaced (2+spaces) with " "

This is sample input and output

The image displays a duplicated text message where Riana requests urgent assistance for a pending funeral claim registered on 7 May 2025, highlighting a lack of feedback despite numerous calls to IUA and asking if any documents need to be submitted to expedite the matter. (Captioned by AI)
