Extract Text Between Two Strings
The simplest way of extracting data
This is one of the simplest yet most valuable tools in our toolkit.
It allows you to extract data without knowing how to write regular expressions.
PicoToolkit can save you a lot of manual work by automatically finding text between the two patterns you provide.
Just copy and paste your list, select Extract -> Emails, provide the patterns to look for, and let us do the rest.
Useful applications
Extract text from string between characters.
The most commonly used feature. Just input the preceding and the following characters, and PicoToolkit will find all occurrences of such a pattern.
Extract text between parentheses
It is just a variation of the previous one, yet the most commonly used. Just input the parentheses as delimiters of the pattern, and the editor will extract all the matching strings.
Extract text between two commas
Like before, the editor could extract the data between two comma characters for you.
Extract text between brackets
Often most important data is placed between brackets. With the help of our editor, you can extract it with ease.
Extract text between two strings
It is a more advanced feature that lets you extract data from a list of similar items. Suppose you have the following list of products:
- Mobile phone Samsung Galaxy S20 price $700
- Mobile phone Samsung Galaxy S19 price $600
- Mobile phone Samsung Galaxy S18 price $500
If you wish to extract the list of models on the list, you could search for the following pattern: phone MODEL NAME price, so the resulting list will look as follows:
- Samsung Galaxy S20
- Samsung Galaxy S19
- Samsung Galaxy S18
Other useful tricks.
Our editor can assist you in other tasks; for example, our pattern extractor to find any type of information.
We provide several built-in tools for the most common use cases: email extractor, phone number extractor, and URL extractor.
