Help with Inbound Email

[Wendy Peterson]

I need to look for an inbound email but I want to extract a contract number from it - Here is the example - I want the short description to be CW2230211 PLUS the Subject Line of the incoming email. I tried doing

var stringFromBody = email.body.cw;

current.short_description = stringFromBody + ", " + email.subject;

Any ideas on how I can achieve to pull that contract number out of there and have it be first plus whatever the subject line is? The above gives me 'Undefined'

Hi @Wendy Peterson ,

you can extract first line as below

var contract =email.body.the_following_contract_workspace_requires_review; //this would give the entire firs line

contract = contract.split("MSA_"); //split to get contract number

var cw =contract(1) //this would give only contract number

current.short_description = cw+" "+email.subject; //append contract number with short description
