Mobile Number extraction | Airtable Community

Hi,

I am trying to clean up info from online forms we receive from another company. I need to extract the mobile numbers so that I can automate the contact process as CRM.

Anyway, I have a reference column with the name "message". In there is text as follows: Gender: male
Firstname: Brian
Lastname: Dawson
Email: brian@valuesystems.com.au
Street: Albert Dr
Number: 73
ZIP: 2071
City: Sydney
Country: AU
Phonenumber: +61418212496

OR AS FOLLOWS:

Street: Ponderosa parade
Number: 8/13
ZIP: 2102
City: Warriewood
Country: AU
Phonenumber: 0450294193

All i want to do is generate a result of a standard australian mobile number to look as follows: All australian mobile numbers are 10 digits... So i would need to convert the +61 prefix to 0 as well...

0450294193

Please help... I have tried this all day and get close, but not reliably so!

Current formula:

(MID(message,FIND("04",message,1),10))

Thanks!

Try this:

SUBSTITUTE(
  SUBSTITUTE(
    Notes,
    LEFT(
      Notes,
      FIND(
        "Phonenumber",
        Notes
      ) + 12
    ),
    ""
  ),
  "+61",
  "0"
)

Thank you for your help!!

Your formula is close! Some fields don't work 100% yet..

Sample text:

No worries! I've added some functionality to handle that new type of text:
