How to format inconsistent address?

My CRM has me input all the address fields separately but sends it to Zapier in an odd format.  I need to pull only the street address portion.  Here is an example of what is pulled over to Zapier. 

123 N Zapier St Lutz, FL 33549 US

[street address] [city], [state] [zip] [country]

 

I can’t use the comma separator because there’s no comma in from of the city name and if I use a space separator then it’ll be different each time depending on if there a street direct or multi word street name. 

 

Any suggestions on how I could get this to work?

I figured it out right after I posted this question.  I hope this helps someone else who may have a similar issue.

I realized there is actually a break after the street address.  You can’t see it in the Input section but it shows in the test output.  I used the [:break:] as my separator and it worked perfectly.

Are you using our Formatter by Zapier step within your Zap? I’ve also found this Community post that may align with what you’re looking to accomplish. Am I along the right track here? Let me know!

Hi @lyndie 

Out of curiosity, what CRM app are you using?

That one had a comma after the street address making it easy to separate.  I just did not realize initially that the address had a break after the street address.
