I agree with Myra. Index time extraction is key here.

I’m with Denny. Once you edit, you lose the auto feature.

I lean towards C. Extraction happens at index time, right?

Once you edit, you can't go back to auto? That's wild!

I thought it was added at search time, not index time.

Wait, you can't preview after editing? That seems off.

Totally agree, I've hit that limit before!

I heard there's a limit on fields extracted.

Haha, if I can't preview the extractions, how am I supposed to know if it's working correctly?

The automatic field extraction workflow is great, but I like having the flexibility to edit the regex.
BR
Britt 8 months ago
Hmm, I thought there was no limit to the number of fields that can be extracted.
KR

I'm pretty sure the extraction is added at index time, not at query time.
EV

I vaguely recall that when you edit the regex, it might affect how the extraction is applied, but I can't remember if it’s at index time or search time.
RO

I’m uncertain about the previewing part. Wasn’t there something about not being able to see the extractions after editing?
BO
Bo 9 months ago
I feel like I practiced a question similar to this, and I think option D might be correct since editing could disrupt the automatic workflow.
MA
Maia 9 months ago
I think I remember something about the limitations of field extractions, but I'm not sure if it's about the number of fields or something else.
EL
Elfrieda 9 months ago
I feel pretty confident about this one. I think the key is understanding that the user's edits to the regex field extraction happen at index time, not during the automatic workflow. That should help me narrow down the right answer.
GR
Gracia 9 months ago
Okay, let's see. If the user edits the regex, does that mean they can't go back to the automatic workflow? And what about previewing the extractions - that could be really important. I'll need to consider all the angles here.
JA

I feel like B makes sense too. No preview after editing.
JU
Jutta 10 months ago
The user can definitely preview the extractions, that's a key feature.
DE
Denny 10 months ago
I think option D is correct. Editing stops the automatic workflow.
MA
Margurite 10 months ago
A is tricky. Limits on fields could be a concern.
KI
Kizzy 11 months ago
Hmm, this one seems a bit tricky. I'm not totally sure about the details of the Field Extractor and how it handles user edits to the regex. I'll need to think through the options methodically.
ME
Mertie 11 months ago
I think I'd start by reviewing the options carefully and trying to understand the implications of each one. The key seems to be how the user's edits to the regex field extraction impact the workflow.

I think option A is misleading. Limits on fields could be a problem too.

But what about option C? Adding at index time sounds beneficial.

Option D seems risky. Losing the automatic workflow could be a big deal.

I agree, understanding the implications is crucial.

True, but if you can't preview the extractions, how do you know it works?
