Michael M Query based on character towards end of external id
Hello, on one of our custom objects, we have a custom external id field. We want to change the format of the field, so we need to either query the records with workbench and then re-import them, or build a report and add a column then import that. The current format for the external id field is name + Date of Birth. So the only thing that all of the records that we want to update have in commin is that the 3rd to last charachter is "-". (E.g. 'Tom Jones1999-09-09'). How can I write a query to fetch all records where the 3rd to last character is a "-"?
Greetings!
I don't think we have any direct way to query to pull the records based on the position of the string.However,we can split the string and store the "-" in one variable and based the variable we can query.
