We can use case sensitive featture in Contains function of formula tool as below.

This is a common challenge! I usually combine REGEX_Match to detect fully uppercase words and then use IF statements to extract them. Curious if anyone has a cleaner formula for large datasets — would love to see alternative approaches!

In newer versions of Alteryx you also have the IsUppercase function: https://help.alteryx.com/current/en/designer/functions/test-functions.html#isuppercase
