Hi, 

 

I’m receiving emails from a specific source with the same subject lines besides the leads name. 

Example “…….. Inquiry From John d”. I want to be able to extract the name/text after the word “from.”

Currently, I’m trying to use Formatter by Zapier. However, I don’t know Python :) 

 
The goal is to create a lead name for Pipedrive. 

 

Thanks!

Hi @Agent Shablool 

Good question.

Try using Formatter > Text > Split and keep the 2nd segment.
