I would like to build the event based on the data that lies between { } and would like to strip the rest ex -

&

],
"current_page": 1,

"total_entries": 21,
"total_pages": 1
}

any help on building this event is appreciated.

This might work. Then again, it might not. Don't know how readily SEDCMD will handle newlines. Have not tried it. Use at your own risk.
