Hi Splunker,

I would like to know and learn how to replace ^ns4: with <

Please find below dummy data.

^ns4:ChannelName>PublicSales
^ns4:Result>SUCCESS^/ns4:Result>

Probably here HTML tags are not visible therefore not able to provide you the exact information.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

the syntax for this is:

| rex mode=sed field=<fieldname> "s/<whatyouwannachange>/<whatitshouldbeafterwards>/g"

Your solution:

| rex mode=sed field=_raw "s/\^ns4\:/\</g"

Hi,

its a button that opens up a form. This will allow you to fill in code without having trouble when it comes to formatting issues or html tags.

Take a look at this picture, this should look familliar.
