Regular Expression | The regular expression used to parse the response data. This must contain at least one set of parentheses "()" to capture a portion of the string, unless using the group $0$. | Yes | ||

- refName_matchNr - the number of matches found; could be 0
- refName_n, where n = 1,2,3 etc - the strings as generated by the template
- refName_n_gm, where m=0,1,2 - the groups for match n
- refName - always set to the actual template value if a match is found, otherwise, the default value.
- refName_gn - not set
Note that the refName variable is always set to the default value in this case, and the associated group variables are not set.
