Can't Narrow Down Enough for Job Search

Help and Support

Hello Distill team,

I created a Global Condition with the folliwing:

only continue if : TEXT

Matches regular expression

(job keyword) in this case, ‘ESG’

gim

However, I get notifications of a much broader range.

I see them marked in green as changes, but they don’t say my keyword.

Any tipis ?

thank you!

@yanezez1988 Thanks for the details.

If you want the condition to check whether the keyword is present only in newly added content, try changing the text type from Text to Added Text.

Added Text targets only the text that was added after the latest change, which is ideal for incremental updates or new additions.

Also, if you’re looking for an exact keyword match, you can use a more explicit regular expression:

\bESG\b

This matches ESG as a standalone word.

You can also use the Test Conditions button. It opens a debugger where you can check and verify how your condition behaves before saving it.

For more details, you can refer to this documentation:

Thank you. So on test I just put \bESG\b and it would give me an exact search notification?
