Create ClickUp tasks based on the Gmail email title containing 11 digit number

I sell on Amazon and often receive e-mails from Amazon that concern problems with the account.
When Amazon opens a new case, the title of such notification e-mail will contain a number consisting of 11 digits.
The automation I want to create is that such e-mails, which have 11 digits in the title, are detected by automation and a ClickUpTask is created on their basis.
So I use Watch E-mails module from Gmail, then from Tools I chose SetVariable module and the last step is the CreateTask module from ClickUp.

I set a filter between the Gmail module and Tools, whose task is to detect this 11-digit number in the title. I inserted a regex just like in the screenshot. It turns out that Tools correctly detects these e-mails, but when I go to Operations, Input and Output are exactly the same and I really don’t know what to do next, because if I do Run Once, it doesn’t reach the ClickUp module at all. Here I have screenshots of the individual settings. I ask for a solution and a hint of what I’m doing wrong here.





Hey there,

those aren’t formulas. In order to use formulas, select them from the box, use a slash command / or use {{ }} to format them properly.

Thanks
I have tried to fix to my abilities - not sure if that is correct but probably not as I got errors:

It still not correct. Try selecting a formula from th box to see what it should look like.

Welcome to the Make community!

There is no built-in Match function, so you won’t be able to find it in the variables panel.

You can use a Text Parser “Match Pattern” module instead.


For more information, see the Text Parser page in the Make Help Center:

Match Pattern
The Match pattern module enables you to find and extract string elements matching a search pattern from a given text. The search pattern is a regular expression, which is a sequence of characters in which each character is either a metacharacter, having a special meaning, or a regular character that has a literal meaning.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
