I am using the .NET regex syntax in a Nintex action and would like to extract the email as shown below
i:0#.f|membership|daniel.Smith@domain.onmicrosoft.com
Now I think the approach is match the i:0#.f|membership bit but exclude it then match the rest. I would appreciate any help on this. I did try this expression which did match some on the above.
(?<=)(i:0#.f|membership).

If you plan to use the Extract mode with Nintex, you may use
[^|]+$
to match 1 or more characters other than | that are at the end of the string. The [^...] is called a negated character class that contains literal symbols or ranges that are NOT to be matched, and everything else gets matched:
The result is that the [negated] character class matches any character that is not in the character class.
See the regex demo
Alternatively, you might use a replace action with
^.*\|
and replace with empty text. See this demo.
The point here is that we first match the string start and then use backtracking with a greedy dot (.*) to get to the last literal |, and remove the whole match.
