The Regex Extraction tool is compatible with:.Use Text Features first if you just need counts or simple pattern flags; reach for Regex Transform when you need to actually pull structured substrings out, and follow up with Cleaning to trim or standardize the extracted values.
You supply a standard regular expression with one or more capture groups, and the tool applies it to every row of a chosen column, writing each capture group into its own output column. This handles structured extraction that simple find-and-replace can't, such as pulling an order number, a date, and a status code out of a single freeform log line in one pass.
