Help with fields extraction

Good evening,
Thank you all for your support,
I have a field called Memberof which contains the following data per line.

1) cn=GRP_Basic,ou=Users,dc=admin,dc=spike|cn=GRP_Hash,ou=Groups,dc=admin,dc=spike

2) cn=GRP_ADC,ou=Groups,dc=admin,dc=spike|cn=GRP_Vabd_Admin,dc=admin,dc=spike|cn=GRP_Vabd_Supe

3) cn=GRP_sos,ou=Groups,dc=command,dc=spike

I wanted to extract for each row all that starts with GRP

For example for the first line I need to extract GRP_Basic and GRP_Hash
For the second line I have to extract GRP_ADC and GRP_Vabd_Admin and GRP_Vabd_Supe

thank you very much

Hi @numeroinconnu12,

you have two choices:

  • use the regex from @ITWhisperer and filter results for the two values you want after the rex command using the search command,
  • insert the condition about the two values in the regex.

about the second please try this:

| rex max_match=0 "(?<grp>GRP_Basic|GRC_Hash)"

Ciao.

Hello,

Thank you very much for the answer but it doesn't work.
I would like to extract only GRP_Basic or GRP_Hash

thank you
