Choose a matching mode

Literal text
Regular expression

Literal mode searches for the exact characters in Search Text. Turn on Ignore Case to compare lowercase versions of the text and search value.With Text set to Error: error: ERROR and Search Text set to error, the count is 1 by default or 3 when case is ignored.

Regex mode accepts a value from Regular Expression. Use a pattern when the matching text varies, such as INV-\d+.Regex flags are preserved. A case-insensitive pattern can count different letter cases without using the literal-mode Ignore Case option.

Avoid capture groups in the regex used for this action. The implementation counts the pieces produced by splitting the text, and captured values are included in that result. Use non-capturing groups such as (?:foo|bar) when grouping is required.

The action counts non-overlapping occurrences. For example, searching for aa in aaa returns 1.
