-{{:regex-icon.png?nolink|}}
 The //Search using Regular Expression// action allows you to search a clipboard, variable, a file (v8+) or some text (v8+) for a [[:Regular Expressions|regular expression]] and capture what you find to one or more variables. This can be very useful for splitting apart the contents of a variable.
-:!:  **Note:  This RegEx Search returns _only the first_ match in the source text.**\\
-If you want to process _all_ matches, you will need to use a [[action:For_Each|For Each Action]] as [[:Regular_Expressions#Examples|Shown in this Example]].
