Regex to find 4th value inside bracket - regex

Question

How i can read 4th Value(inside "" i.e "vV0...." using Regex in below condition ?
I am updating a bit this part - Is it possible to first find Word "LaunchFileUploader" and then select the 4th Value, if there are multiple instance of LaunchFileUploader in the file just select 4th Value of first word found ? Attaching screenshot of file where this needs to be searched (In the file word is "LaunchFileUploader")
I tried this but it gives as - I need 4th value (Group 1 is giving me third value)
\bLaunchFileUploader\b(\:?.*?,){3}.*?\)
Match 1
Full match 11030-11428 LaunchFileUploader("ERM-1BLX3D04R10-0001", 1662, "2ecbb644-34fa-4919-9809-a5ff47594c2d", "8dZOPyHKBK...
Group 1. n/a "2ecbb644-34fa-4919-9809-a5ff47594c2d",
I am still looking for solution for this. Any help is aprreciated.

Answer 1

Depending on what's available to you to use, there's a couple of ways to do it.
Either way, this would work better if there were no new lines in the string, just plain ("value1","value2","value3","value4") etc. It'll still work, but you may need to clean up some new lines from the resulting string.
The easy way - use code for the hard part. Grab the inner string with:
(?<=\().*?(?=\))
This will get everything that's between the 2 parentheses (using positive lookarounds). In code, you could then split/explode this string on , and take the 4th item.
If you want to do it all in regex, you could use something along the lines of:
(?<=\()(?:.*?,){3}(.*?)(?=\))
This would a) match the entire contents of the parentheses and b) capture the 4th option in a capture group. To go even deeper:
(?<=\()(?:.*?,){3}\"(.*?)\"(?=\))
would capture the contents of the "" quotation marks only.
Some tools don't allow you to use lookarounds, if this is the case let me know and I'll see what other ways there are around it.
EDIT Ran this in JS console on browser. This absolutely does work.
EDIT 2 I see you've updated your question with the text you're actually searching in. This pattern will include the space and the new line character as per the copy/paste of the above text.
(?<=\(\")(?:.*?,\s?\n?){3}\"(.*?)\"(?=\))
See my second image for the test in console

This works for python and PHP:
(?<=\")(.*)(?:\"\);)\Z
Demo for Python and PHP
For Java, replace \Z with $ as follows:
(?:")(.*)(?:\"\);)$
Demo for JavaScript
NOTE: Be sure to look the captured group and not the matched group.
UPDATE:
Try this for your updated request:
"(.*)"(?:[\\);\] \/>}]*)$
Demo for updated input string
all the above regex patterns assume there is a line break after each comma
Auto-generated Java Code:
import java.util.regex.Matcher;

final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex, Pattern.MULTILINE);
final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string);
while (matcher.find()) {
