Reg Ex difficulty

Best Answer

Sorry, forgot to have you pass in the 'm' and 'n' flags to the regexp_replace function to tell it to match newline characters with the . reference.
m: Multiple-line mode.
n: The . character matches line terminators.
REGEXP_REPLACE(`text`, '^.*card_name: (.*)\nmeasureable_id:.*', '$1', 'mn')

Magic ETL formula tile should allow this:
REGEXP_REPLACE(`alert.message`, '^.*card_name: (.*) measurable_id: .*$', '$1')

Hi @GrantSmith thanks for the quick response.
It doesn't seem to be working on my end, the result looks the same as the column values :/

Does formatting affect regexp_replace?
This is how I'm seeing it exported:

Yes. That would affect the regular expression as there's a newline character prior to your measure_id.
Try this version:
REGEXP_REPLACE(`alert.message`, '^.*card_name: (.*)\nmeasurable_id: .*$', '$1')

Unfortunately that version didn't work either :/
Is there another way around using the Replace Text tile?
