Hi, I have a data to be extracted. Below is the example data :

Add Content Menu Sections (confluence.menu.add, Version: 1.0, Installed: bundled)
Admin Sections (confluence.sections.admin, Version: 1.0, Installed: bundled)

I would like to get Add Content Meni Sections and Admin Sections as a field called 'Name', and confluence.menu.add and confluence.sections.admin as 'Package' field as well as 'Version' field.

My current regex is | rex "\\w*\\s*\\((?P<package>[^\\(]+),\\sVersion:\\s(?P<version>[^,]+)" and I only get 4 out of 50 of same formatted lines exist, using this regex.
Anyone has any idea? thanks.

This should work..

... | rex "(?<name>[\w\s]+)\s\((?<package>[^,]+),\sVersion:\s(?<version>[^,]+),"

Hope this helps,

Kristian

Which lines are matching and which are not? Also do you use double backspaces just on this site or in your regex as well? They should be single backspaces only.
