Hi,

 

I am creating a custom workflow and using Zapier formatter with custom python regex with groups. 

Custom python regex

(?P<action>MY-DATA)\s+:desc:(?P<desc>.+):\s+:priority:(?P<priority>.+):

The text string I am trying to check with

MY-DATA :desc:please provide my information about https://mydata.com/thisismydata: :priority:3:

 

I used regex101 and it shows that its perfectly fine, but for unknown it is not working in Zapier formatter

Can someone help me in figuring out why this is failing.

 

Regards,

Mudasir

Hi @mudasirmirza - I tried your Regex and it seems to work. Not sure why it didn’t work for you.

Same thing here, since yesterday it was not working and just now it started working without me changing anything
