Removing initial characters from string

fromo

I am trying to use a prepare recipe to remove the first x characters from a string and keep the remaining characters.

Hi @fromo
. This should do the trick:

 In that example I'm removing 3 characters, you can change the 3 with whatever value you might want to use.

Cheers!

Could you help me with a similar formula for removing end characters from string

Hi Yethin,

In the find and replace processor you can use the regex: .{3}$ to remove the last 3 characters.
