Many of our users have the need of split out fragments of a string, e.g. a campaign name, to create custom dimensions based on fragments of that string. This has been possible to do in Funnel for a long time, but knowledge of Regex has been required.
We just released a new function called Split by that allows you to split out fragments from a string by simply typing the delimiter used in that string.
Below is an example of you want to split by '|' ignoring spaces and get the 2nd value with RegEx and with split by. Both of these operators will give you the same end result.
To make this clearer, let's take an example of a campaign name where we want to split out the second fragment where | is the delimiter,
Campaign name:
EU | search | generic | roas
Result:
search
