An email address, such as user@talend.com, is made up of two parts separated by the @ symbol: the local part (user in this example) and the domain part (talend.com in this example).

The two parts of an email address can be extracted and copied to two new columns.

Procedure

  1. Select a column containing email addresses.
  2. In the Functions panel, type Extract Email Parts.
  3. Click the eye icon to preview the result of the Extract Email Parts function.
  4. Click anywhere to exit the preview, and click the Extract Email Parts function to apply it.

Results

The local part and the domain part are extracted from the email addresses. The extracted data is put into two new columns.
Tip: This transformation can also be performed by using the Magic fill function.
