New here, could use some help with batch requests
Hello everyone,
Using Ninox for some months now.
Must figure a lot of stuff out.
Really enjoying it to search multiple files for data so that I can (manually) add found data to a master file (my database).
My work is insurance/banking related.
I did some extracting/searching on websites from different insurancecompanies/banks. Mostly you can search somewhere on a website for advisors.
Most files have a different look and columns, so I had to play with 'searching for text' in files.
I tried other software too. But what I like about Ninox is that they exist for some time. So I dont have to be affraid that after a year they vanish and I have look for another solution again.
The support answers very quick on emails, even in the weekend and in Dutch now :)
I want to get a quick report from a insurance agent, who their businesspartners are.
Most of the times a dataset contains a website or emailaddress, so it is the easiest to search on a domainname.
Sometimes I help a bit by adding an extra column with a domainname, so it is easier to search just on a domainname.
Is it possible to do a batch job?
And getting filtered results into the master table (main database)?
I got a the emailaddresses from different files together into 1 file.
Now I want to do a lookup for 5.000 - 10.000 persons if I have a personal business email and not the standard info@
In this example I have a file containing:
Most likely john@muziekisalles.nl should be the right emailaddress for this person.
How can I extract it and add it?

Someone smarter than me will have to come up with how to access the data.
You can use a combination of index() and substr() to get the first part of the email address then do a search.
let findAT := index(emailaddress,"@"); let userAccount := substr(emailaddress,0,findAT);
