Use the [Text Parser](https://community.make.com/t/how-to-use-regex-in-make/202) module inside Make. There is lots on this forum on this handy dandy module.

@valeribendo you need to use regex with “match pattern” module to extract the information.
Many of my client gets lead on email so i use regex for this. It works best.

Welcome to the Make community!
Assuming the email structure will always roughly be the same, you can use a Text Parser “[Match Pattern](https://www.make.com/en/help/tools/text-parser)” module with this Pattern (regular expression):
`Hello (?[^,]+),\s+\*(?[^*]+?)\*\s+Name(?:[^:]+?): (?[^\n]+)\s+Email: (?[^\n]+)\s+Date: (?[^\n]+)\s+Sub-Account record ID: (?[^\n]+)(?:\s*|$)`

### Important Info
- ⚠ **Global match** must be set to **NO**!

For more information, see [Text Parser](https://www.make.com/en/help/tools/text-parser) 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](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression) (aka regex or regexp), 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.
>
> - The complete list of metacharacters can be found on the [MDN web docs website](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions).
> - For a tutorial on how to create regular expressions, we recommend the [RegexOne website](https://regexone.com/).
> - For an easy, quick regex generator, try the [Regular Expressions generator](https://regex-generator.olafneumann.org/).
> - For experimenting with regular expressions, we recommend the [regular expressions 101 website](https://regex101.com/). Just make sure to tick the ECMAScript (JavaScript) FLAVOR in the left panel.
Hope this helps!
