    Hi Rudhiran -- the double quotes were escaped in my example. Not sure where those came from, but could you try this expression, with backslashes removed, in your mapper and see if it will work for you?

    $['content-disposition'].match('filename="(.*)"')[1]

      HI tlikarish , 

      Multipart reader gives response only Content type and Content - Not the  content-disposition

      So we're getting error in mapper that 

      Cannot invoke a method on a null value

       

      Resolution:
      Please check expression syntax

       

      Reason:
      Value referenced in the sub-expression '$.get('content-disposition').match('filename="(.*)"')' is null
       
      Appreciate your help on this issue
