Can you help me extract the following field values with a regex or any other alternative?

I have an event of the below format from a Firewall Source. I need to extract the field named "FieldChanges" from it. There are multiple fields separated by Pipe where I can use the Delimiter function, but I already have all other fields extracted except the above mentioned field.

Can you help me find a better way of extracting the field values with a Regex or any other alternative?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi
if you want extract all that there's between "FieldChanges=" and the pipe "|", try this regex:

([^\|]+\|){15}FieldsChanges\=(?<FieldsChanges>[^\|]*)

You can test it at https://regex101.com/r/xrySrr/1
