Remove text in parenthesis with Arcade

JoanHickey

I have a python script to remove the text in parentheses for labeling, and I cannot figure out how to convert it to work with Arcade. (I did not write this script, but I am trying to get the same results in AGOL.

The Python script is: def FindLabel ( [label] 😞
  S =[label].strip()
  i = S.find('(')
  if i == -1:
    return S.replace('::','\n')
  elif i > 0:
    return S[0:i]

I know that Arcade does not have a strip function, so I was trying trim, and instead of the newline function, I was just typing a space.

Example:  '82 (Globe)'  needs to be '82'

Thank you in advance.

You can use the Arcade Split function.
