Delete a part of the request/make the request disappear

I wanted to do some operations with regular expressions and I am a little bit lost.

1- I wanted to delete a part of the request.
2-I wanted to make a request disappear.

Can you help me?

Hello @Veleda 

Can you send samples of request name you want to operate with a regex and what you want to keep ?

For example I want from these examples:

/Borradores/Errors/getErrors/57580

/Borradores/Errors/getFormatsErrors/57580/312

Only show /Borradores/Errors the rest do not.

I made this that in a test works for me but not here:([^v]Borradores/Errors)

And the second case is that for example I get this request:

/Health and I want to delete it every time it comes out(That it doesn't show me anything).

I don't know if this is the cleanest regex possible but it should works :

(.[^\/]++.[^\/]++.)

For request I don't want to follow or receive alert I use muted request :

I don't want to mute it, I want Health to disappear and appear either alone / or blank. But only that request, I want the rest to stay like that.

In this case it should be blank space instead of /Health

(.*)\bHealth\/\b(.*)

Ok it's clear.

As you cannot have more than one capture group in the regex, maybe you should try to enable a naming rule with 2 placeholders where each one have a regex that extract before and after the health part in your request :

HI!,

In the test it does not do it for me
