Regex Multiline and Global flags?

theinsideguy

Hello, 

 

I've successfully created my regular expression in regex build: https://regexr.com/6gkut.

 

However, I can't figure out how to port this over to Alteryx as Alteryx doesn't support the /gim flags. I know case sensitivity is an option in the Regex tool, but I can't handle the g and m flags. 

 

 

 

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi @theinsideguy ,

 

by default AlTeRyX is case-insensitive in RegEx.  I put your data into a workflow and it runs flawlessly.  please help to explain your challenge.

 

Cheers,

I see. your solution works because your input was first split by line (one line, one row) whereas my data was multiple pages of text. I think splitting might be the solution to the multi-line and global problem I was having. 

 

Thank you!!
