Some it's needed to cut the file extension from a file name.
Here are 2 steps to do it.
We 'll use the actions named:
- Regular Expression
- Get Item From Collection
- Log To History List ( to show results )
Used Variables
Use the following variables for this sample
Action 1 - Regular Expression Action Configuration
Set the String attribute with your filename. In my sample I am getting it from a Sharepoint Column name named "ItemwithExtension"
Then set the String operation to "Extract"
The pattern used is [^/]*(?=.[^.]+($|?)) with ignore case checked
Finally set a collection variable ( varWithout2 in this case ) to get the results
Finally set a collection variable ( varWithout2 in this cae) to get the results
Action 2 - Get Item From Collection
This action is set to extract he first value from the collection variable (varWithout2) and set the result on the variable named varWithoutExtension
Action 3 - Log To History List
In my sample I wanted to view the results on the History list from a string with the value fhunth.photo.jpg and the results showed is fhunth.photo
The result
