Hi,
im trying to extract a substring from a LDAP query output, but I cant figure out how I can extract just the content of the group.
My pattern looks like this:
`CN=(.*?),OU=*.?Department`
The date im running it on looks like this, there are a few more lines like this with different names and departments:
`CN=Firstname Lastname,OU=Department,OU=Company,DC=Company,DC=local`
The data i wish to get is `Firstname Lastname`.

Hi @mwalk
Here is one possible solution.
String (string is without quotes, right?)
`CN=Firstname Lastname,OU=Department,OU=Company,DC=Company,DC=local`
Regex - Extract
(CN=[w|s]*),(OU=[w|s]*)
Result: 'CN=Firstname Lastname,OU=Department'
Regex - Extract
(CN=[w|s]*)
Result: 'CN=Firstname Lastname'
If you just wanted 'Firstname Lastname', you need a second Regex to replace the 'CN=' with '' (blank or empty chars)
Cheers
