Hello

I call the SharePoint REST API to get a relative path to a library/subfolder

The return value is something like '/sites/site1/library1/subfolder1/subfolder2' however I need to remove the first two levels in order to construct another path. The path I need for the example is '/library1/subfolder1/subfolder2'

I have tried using regular expressions with named groups, but I did not succeed in that. Then I tried to split the path by the character '/', which I managed to do. However, I have no success in iterating 3 times removing the first element of the collection on each iteration.

 

Can someone please explain how to do this or another way to remove the first levels in the path.

Hi,





Use the replace operation in a regular expression.
The pattern is:
^/w*/w*/



This will output:
library1/subfolder1/subfolder2
Replace it with /
To give you
/library1/subfolder1/subfolder2



Thank you for the suggestion. The RegEx actually works if I try it on regex101.com or if I run it with "Run now" option in Nintex Designer, but when I run the workflow the RegEx action outputs excactly the same string as the input. Any suggestions, how to fix this?

Hi,





I tested this in a published workflow.
And this was my result.
/library1/subfolder1/subfolder2
