Create Beast Mode Calculated Field from sub-string in Placement separated by multiple delimiters
Hi,
I need to select a substring from our Placement Names that returns the Creative Name that is nested within the Placement Name. The characters within the Placement Names and Creative Names vary, so I need MySQL code that works in BeastMode that concatenates all characters between the -3 underscore and the -2 underscore. Can someone please help with this?
example:
Placement Name
Partner_CampaignType_CreativeType_Targeting_CampaignName_OperatingSystem__CreativeSize_CreativeName_12345678_Pixel (1234567891234)
Desired Result
CreativeName

I really wanted to learn how to do this with the regex function in the ETL dataflow. However, I am not any good at regex so I gave up.
Here is a solution for this with a MySQL select statement:
I will paste the code here so you can copy and paste...
SELECT
`Placement Name`
,SUBSTRING_INDEX(`part1`, '_',1) as `output`
FROM
(SELECT
`Placement Name`
,SUBSTRING_INDEX(`Placement Name`,'_',-3) as `part1`
FROM
