Regex

Hi All,

I am using regex to get a aphanumeric or numer from a string . I am using regex

/[a-zA-Z0-9]*\d+[a-zA-Z]/g; however it is returning only aphanumeric but ignoring numbers in the string .Please help me to get both aphanumeric or numeric value from a string.

Thanks in advance

var str1 = "this is a test r11MS0AB8";
var str2 = "this is a test 123Abc12CD";
var str3 = "this is a test 51571008";

var regex = /\b(?=[a-zA-Z0-9]*\d)[a-zA-Z0-9]+\b/;

var match1 = str1.match(regex);
var match2 = str2.match(regex);
var match3 = str3.match(regex);

gs.print(match1 ? match1[0] : 'No match'); // Output: r11MS0AB8
gs.print(match2 ? match2[0] : 'No match'); // Output: 123Abc12CD
gs.print(match3 ? match3[0] : 'No match'); // Output: 51571008

Hi @kali,

Latest update so not lost in the thread:

Use the below regex to extract the numeric characters from the String:

var str = "this is a test 5005123";
var rgr = /(\d+)/g;
var data =str.match(rgr);
gs.print(data);

Result: 5005123

Hi @Robbie ,

I need a regex to get the alphanumeric value or numeric value from the string . The string will contain either alphanumeric or numeric but not both in the string. I need the regex to capture the alphanumeric not separate it . Please suggest such a regex

kali · ‎08-01-2024

and @Robbie i am expecting a single regex to for both the use cases

Hi @kali,

Can you provide an example string with the expected results please.

it’s not completely clear what you’re trying to achieve, hence an example with expected results will help.

@Robbie I need to write a code to get a value from the string that is passed to ServiceNow. To get the value i am trying to use regex to get the value

var str = "this is a test 5005123";

In the above string i need to get the value 5005123

var str = "this is a test 123Abc12CD";

In the above string using regex i need to get the value of 123Abc12CD
