Parsing Apt, Unit, etc. from street

Hi guys!

 

I am trying to parse out apt/unit/spc etc. from street addresses field. 

Example: 123 Main St Apt 2

 

Ideal Result:

Street_AddressApt/Unit
123 Main StApt 2

 

I know to use RegEx but not sure what expression to use. Any help is appreciated!

 

Thank you!

Hi @kduong1 ,

 

the problem you will have here is you have only provided one line of data, and so we don't know how consistent your data is.

I have attached a workflow which parses out the apartment then removes it from the original value, creating a separate column, but this will only work if all records are in this format.

 

Hopefully this will get you started though.

hi @kduong1 

 

I attached a workflow to show you how could be.

 

Depends on the second part you can change Apt for something more general [a-z] and the length {2,} 

 

I hope it helps
