@laksh1999 Because you are attempting to use regular expressions with a tool that does not know WTF those are.
man grepis a wonderful thing.
If you are going to keep asking questions, you should learn to do a little basic reading.but to spoon feed you...
# return lines with an A or D followed by 8 digits. grep [AD][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]]Sample:
stuff 1 A00000000 more stuff 1 stuff 2 B0000001 more stuff 2 stuff 3 C00000002 more stuff 3 stuff 4 D00000003 more stuff 4 stuff 5 E00000002 more stuff 5Result:
cat test.txt | grep [AD][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]][[:digit:]] stuff 1 A00000000 more stuff 1 stuff 4 D00000003 more stuff 4 -

man jqcat wtf.txt | jq *.idcat newdata.txt | jq *.id zsh: no matches found: *.idYou didn't bother to read the
manfile.. i pulled that out of my ass from memory...the correct syntax is
jq '.idbut as this point I doubt you have the data you think you have in your text file.

@jaredbusch said in Grep help:
the correct syntax is
jq '.id'I'm also assuming that
idis one of thejsonkeys based on your first post. -

This id value example is only for the 1 tickets
"id"="D00000000"
"id" ="V00000000"
"id"="eeeeeee-eeeeee-eeeee-eeeee"

want to grep
no you don't.
FFS how many times do I have to tell you.
Your data is
json, use fuckingjsontools.jqis extremely powerful. Use it to correctly query yourjsondata to get the result you need. -
