# Split

S**plit**\
Splits the input using the specified 'sep' separator. \
@param sep Type string. Optional ( Default any whitespace characters) \
Input must be a string.\
\
This function allows users to split the string using a token that is provided by the user. 

### Example 1: 

Step 1: Create an empty **split\_example\_1** using AIOps studio as shown in the below screenshot. 

![Empty pipeline](/files/-MeS2VeRls0eCRSNtkLx)

Step 2: Add the following pipeline code/commands into the above-created pipeline as shown in the below screenshot:

You can copy the below code into your pipeline and execute that in your environment.\
\
\&#xNAN;*`##### This pipeline creates an ipaddress list with different IP addresses as string`*\
*`##### in a dataset.`*\
*`##### Pipeline uses RDA dm split the string into three elements using split token ','`*\
*`##### Once the string is split, output is displayed.`*\
\
*`@dm:empty`* \
*`--> @dm:addrow IPV4_Address_List = '10.95.122.15,10.95.122.16,10.95.122.107'`*\
*`--> @dm:map from = 'IPV4_Address_List' & to = 'IP_V4_Address' & func = 'split' & sep = ','`* \
*`--> *dm:filter * get IPV4_Address_List, IP_V4_Address`*<br>

Step 3: Click verify button to make sure syntax and pipeline code is correct (as shown below)

Step 4:  Click execute button and execute the pipeline. RDA will execute the pipeline without any errors (as shown below)

Step 5: RDA uses the dm function split to split the string into multiple elements or tokens based on the separator that was provided by the user.\
\
&#x20;Once the IP list is split using a 'sep' token, the output is stored in another IP\_V4\_Address element.\
\
Note: In addition to the above dm function, the pipeline also uses a dm filter function to select and display the output.
