I tested my regex in the tree view and it worked fine, but when I actually run the test it's giving me the error in the title.
The pattern I'm using is (?<=\{\"id\":)\d+
I have also tried (?<=\{\"id\":)(\d+)
The response data looks like this: aaData":[{"id":488,"environment": (I am trying to match 488)
I've tried changing the response field to check (I've tried them all), not sure what else could be wrong.
It looks like your regular expression itself is OK.
At a pinch (not having used jmeter) I'd say the problem is with the lack of support for lookbehinds.
In the current user manual it is states:
Note that (?<=regexp) - lookbehind - is not supported.
I guess \{\"id\":(\d+) should work without upset (provided you're able to use the first capture group as a result.
Edit The working regex ended up using a non capturing group:
(?:\{\"id\":)(\d+)

I am at the beginning of learning Regex, and I use every opportunity to understand how it's working. Currently I am trying to extract dates from a text file (which is in fact a vnt-file type from my mobile phone). It looks like following:
BEGIN:VNOTE
VERSION:1.1
BODY;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE;CHARSET=UTF-8:18.07.=0A14.08.=0A15.09.=0A15.10.=
=0A13.11.=0A13.12.=0A12.01.=0A03.02. Grippe=0A06.03.=0A04.04.2015=0A0=
5.05.2015=0A03.06.2015=0A03.07.2015=0A02.08.2015=0A30.08.2015=0A28.09=
17.11.2017=0A
DCREATED:20171118T095601
X-IRMC-LUID:150
END:VNOTE
I want to extract all dates, so that the final list is like that:
18.07.
14.08.
15.09.
15.10.
and so on. If the date has also a year, it should also be displayed.
I almost found out how to detect the dates by the following regex:
.+(\d\d\.\d\d\.(2015|2016|2017)?).+
But it only detect very few of the dates. The result is this:
BEGIN:VNOTE
VERSION:1.1
15.10.
04.04.2015
30.08.2015
24.01.2016
DCREATED:20171118T075601
X-IRMC-LUID:150
END:VNOTE
Then I tried to add a question mark which makes the .+ not greedy, as far as I read in tutorials. Then the regex looks like:
.+?(\d\d\.\d\d\.(2015|2016|2017)?).+?
But the result is still not what I am looking for:
BEGIN:VNOTE
VERSION:1.1
21.03.20.04.18.05.18.06.18.07.14.08.15.09.15.10.

For someone who is familiar with regex I am pretty sure this is very easy to solve, but I don't get it. It's very confusing when you are new to regex. I tried to find a hint in some tutorials or stackoverflow posts, but all I found is this: Notepad++ how to extract only the text field which is needed?
But it doesn't work for me. I assume it might have something to do with the fact that my text file is not one single line.
I have my example on regex101 too.
I would be very thankful if maybe someone can give me a hint what else I can try.
Edit: I would like to detect the dates with the regex and as a result have a list with only the dates (maybe it is called substitute?)
Edit 2: Sorry for not mentioning it earlier: I just want to use the regex in e.g. Notepad++ or an online regex test website. Just to get the result of the dates and save the result in a new txt-file. I don't want to use the regex in an programming language. My apologies for not being precisely before.
Edit 3: The result should be a list with the dates, and each date in a new line:
I want to extract all dates, so that the final list is like that:
18.07.
14.08.
15.09.
15.10.
I suggest this pattern:
(?:.*?|\G)(\d\d\.\d\d\.(?:\d{4})?)
This makes use of the \G flag that, in this case, allows for multiple matches from the very start of the match without letting any single unmatched character in the text, thus allowing the removal of all but what's wanted.
If you want to remove the extra matches as well, add |.* at the end:
(?:.*?|\G)(\d\d\.\d\d\.(?:\d{4})?)|.*
regex101 demo
In N++, make sure the options underlined are selected, and that the cursor is at the beginning. In the picture below, I replaced then undid the replacement, only to show that matches were identified (16 replacements).
You can try using the following pattern:
\d{2}\.\d{2}\.(?:\d{4})?
This will match day.month dates of the form 18.07., but it also allows such a date to be followed by a four digit year, e.g. 18.07.2017. While it would be nice to make the pattern more restrictive, to avoid false fire matches, I do not see anything obvious which can be added to the above pattern. Follow the demo link below to see the pattern in action.

Unfortunately in the last versions of Chrome the negative network filter doesn't work anymore. I used this filter in order to exclude each http call containing a particular string. I asked a solution in Chrome dev tool forum but at the moment nobody answered.
So I would like to know if there is a way to resolve this problem (and exclude for example each call containing the string 'loadMess') with regex syntax.
Update (2018):
This is an update to my old answer to clarify that both bugs have been fixed for some time now.
Negate or exclude filtering is working as expected now. That means you can filter request paths with my.com/path (show requests matching this), or -my.com/path (show requests not matching this).
The regex solution also works after my PR fix made it in production. That means you can also filter with /my.com.path/ and /^((?!my.com/path).)*$/, which will achieve the same result.
I have left the old answer here for reference, and it also explains the negative lookup solution.
The pre-defined negative filters do work, but it doesn't currently allow you to do NOT filters on the names in Chrome stable, only CONTAINS. This is a bug that has been fixed in Chrome Canary.
Once the change has been pushed to Chrome stable, you should be able to do loadMess to filter only for that name, and -loadMess to filter out that name and leave the rest, as it was previously.
Workaround: Regex for matching a string not containing a string
^((?!YOUR_STRING).)*$
Example:
^((?!loadMess).)*$
Explanation:
^ - Start of string
(?!loadMess) - Negative lookahead (at this cursor, do not match the next bit, without capturing)
. - Match any character (except line breaks)
()* - 0 or more of the preceeding group
$ - End of string
Update (2016):
I discovered that there is actually a bug with how DevTools deals with Regex in the Network panel. This means the workaround above doesn't work, despite it being valid.
The Network panel filters on Name and Path (as discovered from the source code), but it does two tests that are OR'ed. In the case above, if you have loadMess in the Name, but not in the Path (e.g. not the domain or directory), it's going to match on either. To clarify, true || false === true, which means it will only filter out loadMess if it's found in both the Name and Path.
I have created an issue in Chromium and have subsequently pushed a fix to be reviewed. This has subsequently been merged.
This is answered here - for latest Chrome 58.0.3029.110 (Official Build) (64-bit)
https://stackoverflow.com/a/27770139/4772631
E.g.: If I want to exclude all gifs then just type -gif
Negative lookahead is recommended everywhere, but it does not work.
Instead, "-myregex" does work for me. Like this: -/(Violation|HMR)/.
Chrome broswer dev tools support regrex filter not very well.
When I want to hide some requests, it does not work as showed above. But you can use -hide1 -hide2 to hide the request you want.
Just leave a space between the conditions, and this does not match the regrex, I guess it may use string match other than regrex in principle
Filtering multiple different urls
You can negate symbol for filtering the network call.
Eg: -lab.com would filter lab.com urls.
But for filtering multiple urls you can use the | symbol in the regex
Eg: -/lab.com|mini.com/ This will filter lab.com and mini.com as well you can use it to filter many different websites or urls.
You can use "Invert" option to exclude the APIs matching a string in the Filter text box.
On latest chrome version (62) you have to use :
-mime-type:image/gif
I have the following regex:
var URLREGETX1 = /(\b(https?|ftp):\/\/[-A-Z0-9+&##\/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[-A-Z0-9+&##\/%=~_|])/gim;
that captures the protocol and url. It works well but I would like to make sure that it does not catch foo links.
I try to fiddle with (?!href=\") without much success.

I made this work using a negative Look Behind.
(?<!RegExpThatShouldNotBeAPrefix)RegExpToMatch
According to regex101 this is however not supported by Javascript. But you should test this in the field.
I made it work by switching to python.

Could anyone provide an example of a regex filter for the Google Chrome Developer toolbar?
I especially need exclusion. I've tried many regexes, but somehow they don't seem to work:
It turned out that Google Chrome actually didn't support this until early 2015, see Google Code issue. With newer versions it works great, for example excluding everything that contains banners:
/^(?!.*?banners)/
It's possible -- at least in Chrome 58 Dev. You just need to wrap your regex with forward-slashes: /my-regex-string/
For example, this is one I'm currently using: /^(.(?!fallback font))+$/
It successfully filters out any messages that contain the substring "fallback font".
EDIT
Something else to note is that if you want to use the ^ (caret) symbol to search from the start of the log message, you have to first match the "fileName.js?someUrlParam:lineNumber " part of the string.
That is to say, the regex is matching against not just the log message, but also the stack-entry for the line which made the log.
So this is the regex I use to match all log messages where the actual message starts with "Dog":
/^.+?:[0-9]+ Dog/
The negative or exclusion case is much easier to write and think about when using the DevTool's native syntax. To provide the exclusion logic you need, simply use this:
-/app/ -/some\sother\sregex/
The "-" prior to the regex makes the result negative.
Your expression should not contain the forward slashes and /s, these are not needed for crafting a filter.
I believe your regex should finally read:
!(appl)
Depending on what exactly you want to filter.
The regex above will filter out all lines without the string "appl" in them.
edit: apparently exclusion is not supported?
I am using the following regex for validating youtube video share url's.
var valid = /^(http\:\/\/)?(youtube\.com|youtu\.be)+$/;
alert(valid.test(url));
return false;
I want the regex to support the following URL formats:
http://youtu.be/cCnrX1w5luM
http://youtube/cCnrX1w5luM
www.youtube.com/cCnrX1w5luM
youtube/cCnrX1w5luM
youtu.be/cCnrX1w5luM
I tried different regex but I am not getting a suitable one for share links. Can anyone help me to solve this.

You're missing www in your regex
The second \. should optional if you want to match both youtu.be and youtube (but I didn't change this since just youtube isn't actually a valid domain - see note below)
+ in your regex allows for one or more of (youtube\.com|youtu\.be), not one or more wild-cards.
You need to use a . to indicate a wild-card, and + to indicate you want one or more of them.
Try:
^(https?\:\/\/)?(www\.youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
Live demo.
If you want it to match URLs with or without the www., just make it optional:
^(https?\:\/\/)?((www\.)?youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
Live demo.
Invalid alternatives:
If you want www.youtu.be/... to also match (at the time of writing, this doesn't appear to be a valid URL format), put the optional www. outside the brackets:
^(https?\:\/\/)?(www\.)?(youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
youtube/cCnrX1w5luM (with or without http://) isn't a valid URL, but the question explicitly mentions that the regex should support that. To include this, replace youtu\.be with youtu\.?be in any regex above. Live demo.
I know I'm like 2 years late to the party, but I was needing to write something up anyway, and seems to fit every test case that I can throw at it. Should be able to reference the first match ($1) to get the ID. Matches the http, https, www and non-www, youtube.com, youtu.be, /watch? and /watch.php? on youtube.com (youtu.be does not use these), and it supports matching even when there are other variables in the URL string (?t= for time, ?list= for playlists, etc).
(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:youtu\.be\/|(?:www\.|m\.)?youtube\.com\/(?:watch|v|embed)(?:\.php)?(?:\?.*v=|\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+)
Format for YouTube videos has changed. This regex works for all cases:
^(http(s)??\:\/\/)?(www\.)?((youtube\.com\/watch\?v=)|(youtu.be\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\-_])+
Tests here.
Based on so many other regex; this is the best I have got:
((http(s)?:\/\/)?)(www\.)?((youtube\.com\/)|(youtu.be\/))[\S]+
Test:
http://regexr.com/3bga2
Try this:
((http://)?)(www\.)?((youtube\.com/)|(youtu\.be)|(youtube)).+
http://regexr.com?36o7a
I took one of the answers from here and added support for a few edge cases that I noticed in my dataset. This should work for pretty much any valid url.
^(?:https?:)?(?:\/\/)?(?:youtu\.be\/|(?:www\.|m\.)?youtube\.com\/(?:watch|v|embed)(?:\.php)?(?:\?.*v=|\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\_-]{7,15})(?:[\?&][a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+=[a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+)*(?:[&\/\#].*)?$
I tried this one and it works fine for me.
(?:http(?:s)?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?(?:youtu\.be\/|youtube\.com\/(?:(?:watch)?\?(?:.*&)?v(?:i)?=|(?:embed|v|vi|user)\/))([^\?&\"'<> #]+)
