New option in the Substring action

When you use the String > Substring action to extract a part of content from a string, you can select the Return blank if the range is not found check box. This enables the bot to return a blank value when the value in the Start from index field is greater than the length of the source string.

子字符串 action

Fixes

When you use the String > Extract text action and select either Before, Before and/or after, or After options to extract the text, the event data now correctly shows the options that you select.

Previously, when you used one of the specified options to extract the text, the event data of the bot showed only the Before option irrespective of the option that you had selected.

The bot no longer generates an incorrect output when you use the String > Replace action to find and replace a string which contains a regular expression.
