Hello, I'm trying to extract a number out of my comments column. I'm not sure how to write the expression? or if I'm using the right transformer? I'm still new with FME.

 

The number I am trying to extract is 8 digits and is put in comment field with this format "/ 12345678 /" an example of the format is below.

 

VB BLVD / 59208085 / L06-514 / ATT 8547

 

Is there a way to extract this number?

 

Thank you!
