Hi,
When I use the text parser, it’s not working. It always works with words, but not with asterisks (*). Do I need to format it differently?
You’ll have to escape special characters in your pattern,
\*
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.

Hi @trokiano
If you want to remove all “*” from the text you can use replace function.
{{replace(493.text; "*"; emptystring)}}
or use the following if you want space instead of *
{{replace(493.text; "*"; space)}}
Output:

This is working. Can I replace it with nothing? Normally, I would replace it with a blank space.
Just use the special variable {{ emptystring }}
, which means a 0-length text string.
You can also save an operation by using the built-in function replace
e.g.:
{{ replace("*Test*"; "*"; emptystring) }}
For more information, see the function documentation in the Help Center.
Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
