Hi,

I'm trying to figure out the right regex tagger for segments with straight bracket, but every option I try, it turn out too greedy

An example for a segment:

Please use our portal |portallink| and this unique code |code|

Your assistance will be highly appreciated

| (pipe) sign is used as alternator in regexes in MQ. So you should backslash it like \| to find «|» as simple sign.

If there is no space between the pipe signs, Feb 13, 2020

use \|(\w+)\|

If there is/are space(s) anywhere between the pipe signs, use [?>=\|][^|]+[?=\|]
