Two possible Prefix for my regular expression for field extraction

Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to use the OR | or any other solution to use two possible prefix in my Regex while extrating field values.

Exemple:
I have the following data

a) Time1 WARN some message here

b) Time2 ERROR /r7/ some other message

c) Time3 FATAL /r3/ yet another message

and i want the word after WARN, ERROR /r7/ and FATAL /r3/

So here i did (?i)(?:WARN|ERROR./r[0-9]/|FATAL./r[0-9]/)(?[^ ]+)
but it's not working, opposed to (?i)(?:WARN|ERROR|FATAL)(?[^ ]+) whitch works.
Is it possible to have a regex instead of the word after the pipe (|) charater?

Thank you.

Hello somesoni2, I got an error using you regex but this worked for me:

(?i) (?:Asset |video ./r[0-9]/C*C*U*R*!)(?P[^ ,]+)

Note: Spacing is Important! and Depends on how your data is presented of course. Thank you.

Note: CCUR! is part of my data and not a RegEx function.

Can you try below regex

"(WARN|ERROR /r[0-9]/|FATAL /r[0-9]/) (?<your_field>.*)"
