Extract the string values in between stroke and question mark in a URL
Hi Domo,
I am looking for a way to extract the string values in between stroke and question mark in a URL
Example URL:
https://dam-bc.com/content/67-making-AI-trustable.pdf?_gl=1*ckt29z
I want to extract this part of URL: "67-making-AI-trustable.pdf"
Ideally if I can do that with a beast mode formula would be great. But if there is any tile in the ETL that can help me would be helpful too
Thanks

If you won't always have a ? in the URL and want to get the end of it you can make the ? optional by adding ? after the group
REGEXP_REPLACE(`url`, '^.*\/([^\/]+)(?=\?)?.*$', '$1')

You can use REGEXP_REPLACE in a MagicETL formula tile:
REGEXP_REPLACE(`url`, '^.*\/([^\/]+)(?=\?).*$', '$1')

@GrantSmith I looked at the URLs, some doesn't have ? that's why it didn't work for those
Any idea how to make it work?

You can use this updated regex:
REGEXP_REPLACE(`url`, '^.*\/([^\/]+\.pdf)(?:\?.*)?$', '$1')

@GrantSmith This new one didn't work. Previous one was better
