🔧 Key Features

Input Sources

  • Direct String — Enter raw text inline in the task UI
  • File — Read input text from any file path on disk
  • SSIS Variable — Parse text already stored in an SSIS variable (e.g. from a prior REST API call or file read)

Extraction Capabilities

  • Extract a single match or the full set of capture groups from one Regex pattern
  • Map each extracted group to a separate SSIS variable
  • Extract multiple values in a single task execution using named or indexed groups

Developer Experience

  • Built-in Regex test panel — enter sample text and validate your pattern interactively before running the package
  • No Script Task, C#, or VB.NET code required

💡 Common Use Cases

Common real-world scenarios where this task replaces custom Script Tasks for text parsing:

  • Extract Contact Details: Pull email addresses or phone numbers from unstructured text.
    Example: Parse a customer note field and extract all email addresses into a variable.
  • Parse API Responses: Extract a specific value from a REST API response stored in an SSIS variable.
    Example: Pull a token, ID, or status code from a raw JSON or HTML string.
  • Log File Analysis: Extract error codes or timestamps from log file content.
    Example: Read a log file and capture all lines matching a specific error pattern.
  • Data Validation & Cleansing: Verify that variable content matches an expected format.
    Example: Confirm a date string matches yyyy-MM-dd before passing it to a downstream task.
  • Dynamic Path Parsing: Extract a filename or subfolder name from a full file path string.
    Example: Parse C:\data\2024\sales.csv to extract the year segment into a variable.

🎯 Summary

Replace Script Tasks with a drag-and-drop Regex parser that reads from strings, files, or variables.
Extract one or many values using standard Regular Expressions and store results directly in SSIS variables — with a built-in tester to get your pattern right on the first run.
