I'm trying to use the Regular Expression Action to pull the first name out of the display name. The expression works, but I'm unable to select a variable in the "Store result in" dropdown.  The dropdown shows no choices.

 

Has anyone run into this, or know a fix?  We are running on SharePoint 2016 on-prem.  Thanks!

Hi,


 


When using the Extract Operation of the Regular Expression action the output is a collection variable.


Create a collection variable and add it to the action.  To insert the value into a text variable you then use a Get Item From collection action.
