Here is a very simple regex , to get you started, that will extract the roomname value out to the field "roomname_field"

"chat://\w+/\w+/(?<roomname_field>\w+)"

Without seeing a sample of many possible values I dont know what characters could be in the room, domain and roomname path parts. \w just captures [a-zA-Z_0-9] . Adjust as necessary.
