I need to extract the username from a string which includes DomainUsername. Using DOMAIN\ as mentioned in this page doesn't work so I was hoping I could just return the characters to the right of the slash. Is that possible?

/^[^\]+\/

  • ^ assert position at start of the string
  • [^\]+ match a single character not present in the list below
    • Quantifier: + Between one and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed [greedy]
    • \ matches the character literally
  • \ matches the character literally

Kind regards

Manfred
