How to replace a "pipe" in a regular expression ?

Hello,

As you can see in the screen, I used a regular expression to replace an expression like : i:0#.w|blablabla to blablabla

But when I execute my action the expression is : |blablabla

Problem :

When I used regular expression, this part "i:0#.w" is delete so it's OK but I don't know why the pipe "|" stay.

I try ASCII into the regular expression but it not work &#124

Do you have solution to fix it ?

Hi Theo,

A pipe "|" expression in regex tells the system that a match can be on either side of the |. To replace this character you may have to escape it.

I'm not a pro at regex but this is what i have seen in the past. See more details here: replacing pipe "|"

Add backslash before the pipe to have the correct result.

Thanks, I'm going to try and get back to you =)

Thanks for your help ! It works well =)

Do you @francois know how to remove the pipe in this case? When I try to use a backslash it disallows this in the variable setup.
