Regex to capture the group

Code Guy

I have tried with .match(/Email:(.*)1/g)

But I am getting [Email:] instead of [email protected] How do I get the matching email from the group

You need to access the first capture group. But I would use this version:

var text = `Details of Contact Made: 
Sender's Name: Test (Individual) 
Mobile: 4354354354 
Email: [email protected] 
Message: I am interested in your property. Please get in touch with me

var email = text.match(/Email:s*(S+?@S+)/)[1];
console.log(email);
