Please help me with building regular expression for the below response sequence
I have defined a variable PlanName = prod-p1 in testplan.
Response:
projectmanagement.plan.Plan%3A2992173879&u8=1\" ext:qtip=\"prod-p1\">prod-p1<\/a>
Regular Expression build is:
ptc.projectmanagement.plan.Plan\%3A([^"]+)&\;u8=1\\" ext:qtip\=\\"${PlanName}\\">${PlanName}\<\\
Currently I am getting below error in Jmeter
jmeter.extractor.RegexExtractor: Error in pattern: ptc.projectmanagement.plan.Plan\%3A(.+?)\&\;u8=1\" ext:qtip\=\"prod-p1\">prod-p1\<\
You need to escape \ symbols with another backslash so amend your regular expression to look like:
projectmanagement.plan.Plan%3(.+?)&u8=1\\" ext:qtip=\\"prod-p1\\">prod-p1</a>

Check the below regular expression and output:-
projectmanagement.plan.Plan%3A(.+?)&u8=1\\" ext:qtip=\\"prod-p1\\">prod-p1</a>
Hope it helps.

Use the following Regular Expression
projectmanagement\.plan\.Plan%3A(.+?)&u8=1\\" ext
In your response there are . and \ tokens , To match those characters append a backslash () so that JMeter matches the character . or \ literally.

In the following String:
Events('1234', '123456', '', 'QW233Cdse');
I need to extract "QW233Cdse"
Any suggestion?
When we are working with regular expressions then its very important that we should look for the static text in the test string that can help to create a strong regular expression.
As in your case, "Events()" seems to be a static text containing dynamic value in the round parenthesis so in order to generate the regular expression you need to keep 'Events()' text and add the expression in the round parenthesis as mentioned below:
Test String: Events('1234', '123456', '', 'QW233Cdse');
Regular Expression can be:
Events(.'(.)');
Events(.* '(.+?)');
Note: The backslash before round parentheses would avoid interpreting the round braces as unescaped character. For example, a parenthesis "(" begins the definition of a quantifier, but the leading backslash of parenthesis "(" indicates that the regular expression should match the parenthesis.
Regular expression is most important item to learn when you are working with load testing tools and you can refer to below blog post to get more information on regular expression:

Let me know if you have any further question
The relevant regular expression would be something like:
Events\(.* '(.+?)'\);

Try using this regex:
\w+(?='\))
Regex would be:
, '([^']+?)');
Configuration would be:
I'm trying to get only the first 4 values from the result of a resquisition and that return is in json.
How can I do this?
I looked in the apache manual and what is presented there I can not do
I believe you should use Regular Expression like {"d":"(\d{4})

I can capture the value of the response by putting the value in the "regular expression extractor" = [1-9] {1,4}
I have the following part of a JSON response:
"created_at":"2017-05-08T14:01:25.903Z"
How should I configure my "Regular Expression Extractor" in JMeter to extract the first 10 characters from this JSON response: 2017-05-08.
Try the following pattern:
"created_at":"([0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}).*?"
If the syntax is always the same, you can use this one :
\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}
Demo here
If you need first 10 characters only the relevant regular expression would be as simple as
"created_at":"(.{1,10})

ChemicalID=265297\u0026RptId=46160.
This is a text from my jmeter request response. Can somebody help me how to write regular expression to extract 265297 from the above response?
Use the following Regular Expression:
ChemicalID=(\d+)

Given a HTTP response header contains the following parameter:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="myfile.pdf"
What's the regular expression in JMeter to extract the filename myfile.pdf? I've started with filename=".*" but don't know how to proceed.
First of all you need to surround your regular expression with parentheses like:
filename=(.*)
so JMeter would know what exactly you are trying to capture. It will extract "myfile.pdf"
If you don't need the quotation marks - add them to your regular expression like:
filename="(.*)"
Make sure you have:
