How to trim the unusual brackets from url?

Hi all,

I have some value under src fields as below, but it has some problems. For example, actually <1b5a.4.d576d0e8-5fbb-4739-a4c7-6dfbc1a4fd2e@avo-sv.one.com> and 1b5a.4.79406b4a-9326-41b2-94cc-2626e10ea6f6@avo-sv.one.com are same & i have multiple src with same issue. I want to remove all "< >" if the string has, so there will not be duplicates. Can anyone help me on this?

Thank you.

Hi,

not sure if this is the most elegant solution, but I would use replace.

| replace <*> with * in src
