Regex Replace

A "Replace" option should be available in the "Regular Expression" action. Now only "Check match", "Split" and "Extract" are available. Why is that? It makes it impossible to replace "forbidden" characters in a form before submitting. The available rules does not help either…

    That's wonderful news. This will help me a lot. Thank you! Just logged to Nintex Workflow Cloud and found the option. Noticed that the field "Replacement text" is required. What if I want to replace a string with "empty"?

    I ended up creating an empty variable to use as "Replacement text". Works perfectly! :-)

    Hi Niclas,

    Apologies for the delay in responding, glad you've found the empty-variable solution already!

    Please do reach out if you have any other questions, or feedback.

    Regards,
    Kate
