Get domain name from urls

Hello,

I'm trying get the domain name alone from any given urls. Please see the list of url formats i'm dealing with and how i want the result to be. 

 

https://www.example.com:9090
https://abc.example-url.uk/username/test
https://test-url.web-url.ch/test
https://hello.example.co?test
https://test.example.com,

 

Expected output for the URL field as follows

 

www.example.com
abc.example-url.uk
test-url.web-url.ch
hello.example.co
test.example.com

 

 I tried the following rex 

 

rex "Value1=https://(?P<URL>([\w]+\.[\w]+\.[\w]+))"

 

The above won't pull anything like abc.example-url.uk or test-url.web-url.ch. Looks like i'm missing something here. Can anyone please help.

Hi @Sagarvadlamani ,

try this regex:

https:\/\/(?<domain>[^:\/\?,]*)

that you can test at https://regex101.com/r/7XmpL4/1
