Advanced tag splitting

In order to parse more complex data, you can use an advanced splitting mode for each tag. In order to initiate this mechanism, just change the desired tag by adding new parameters.
There are 3 mandatory parameters, each of them separated by square brackets []:

  • The first parameter determines the character used to separate data within each line. 
  • The second parameter determines between which occurrences of the character a separator will be used.
  • The third parameter determines a line range.

The allowed range of characters in brackets is as follows:

- [x:y] or [x:y] - separate data from a separator or a line x to a separator or a line y,

- [a:] or [a:] - separate data from a separator or a line a to the end of the field content,

- [:x] or [:x] - separate data from the beginning to a separator or a line x,

- [:] or [:] - separate data for each separator or line,

- [] or [] - do not separate data.


Example:

We have to insert the $$description:[/][:1][:]$$ tag.

The issue's description contains the following text:

John Doe / Marketing Coordinator
Lucy McMillis / Development Lead
Anthony Pierce / Accountant

In order to retrieve the following value, you should add split parameters to the tag. They will separate values in columns or rows.

John Doe
Lucy McMillis
Anthony Pierce
