Hi,

 

How do I use a formula or tool to Find and remove part of a string. Thanks.

 

EXAMPLE: I want to remove all string after "STE", include STE

 

105 W Madison St STE 101

100 Westminster St STE 1050

 

Output

105 W Madison St

100 Westminster St

Hi @BosKev,

 

You could use TRIM(REGEX_Replace([Text], '(.*)STE.*', '$1'))

 

If this solves your issue please mark the answer as correct, if not let me know!

Hi @BosKev,

 

you could use the Regex_Replace Function in the formula tool to do this:

Formula: 

REGEX_Replace([String], '\s[A-Z]+\s', ' ',0)

 

 

Output: 

grossal_1-1588093472439.png

 

Sample workflow attached. Let me know what you think.

 

Best

Alex
