Parsing text using delimited text (pattern designer) Jakarta

I'm trying to parse text following ITOM > Service Mapping docs (Jakarta) while in Debug mode.   Step 3 of procedure states:    

To define parse the file and extract the string as a variable from within Debug mode:

  1. Select the string to be parsed in the text box.All settings are automatically entered in the variable fields.
  2. Provide a unique and meaningful name for the variable and click OK. The variable is added to the Variables table.

Indeed, selecting a portion of a text string creates a dialogue box to pop up with a default variable name.   But I never see an "OK" button, nor does the variable actually get saved to the variables list.   Has anyone successfully used the specific steps outlined in step 3?     It seems like a helpful procedure to define a variable related to a portion of the text file... but ... not sure it works...

Hi ,



I am new to Service Mapping. I am trying to parse the file using "Delimited Text". But, I am unable to add multiple values in Include lines, I mean I am able to add but it doesn't retrieve any data. Is there anything that we will be able to add only one value ( conditions).Here is my example --- I am trying to parse the command output   using delimited text and I want to include lines which has values ( 50123 and 52530) but if add them separated by comma . It doesn't retrieve any data. But, if I try to retrieve them individually I am able to retrieve. Could you please let me know any info regarding this.



Thanks,


Sankrupa.


Hi Sankrupa,



I am not sure if you still have this requirement.



If yes, then in include line field provide 50123|52530
