How to extract a substring from an URL

I'm trying to extract the substring from an URL.
Input: www.abcd.com/level1/level2
The output I'm looking for is essentially taking from the first character to the position of the second '/' minus 1. I wonder how to write the formula in beast mode.
Desired output: www.abcd.com/level

CONCAT(SPLIT_PART(`url`, '/', 1), '/', SPLIT_PART(`url`, '/', 2))
SPLIT_PART will get the values with the data split out by a specific character. It's undocumented in the UI but is accessible.
Concat then takes those two values and combines them together with the / inbetween

There's several functions which aren't listed in the function list but do still exist. Hopefully Domo gets it updated.
