Hi there,

 

this should be a simple task but somehow I have problems.

Due to a lookup to a people picker field (multiple persons possible) on a form, I receive the following (back):

[37;#Lucas, Philipp (EXT),86;#Weiss, Michael (EXT),87;#Weiss, Michael (EXT)]

 

I need those people as recipients of a flexi task.

So, how do I get

THIS: Lucas, Philipp (EXT);Weiss, Michael (EXT);Weiss, Michael (EXT)

OUT OF THIS: [37;#Lucas, Philipp (EXT),86;#Weiss, Michael (EXT),87;#Weiss, Michael (EXT)]

 

PS: I am clueless concerning RegEx - I tried but my brain cannot. 

 

Please help.

 

Cheers

mai-kel

Hi Mai-kel,


you need to do it in two steps, first extract the strings based on hashtag:



then get rid of extra comma (note: unfortunately, comma is in your case both delimiter and part of the sub-string you want to extract)



 


Hope it helps 🙂

I did it by myself in the meantime, I need four steps (better to process for my little brain. 🙂



ersetzen = replace



 



 



 



 


Hope this helps.


 


Cheers
