find "value": "word or two or three" replace with "value": "?"

isntworkdull

hi all,

can anyone advise how i can find “value”: “word or two” replace with “value”: “?”

I managed to use “value”: “\w*” but it only finds single words - anyway for it to find single and two or three words (basically anything inside the “”

regards

"[^"]*" will find everything from one quote to the next. but I would personally make it slightly more restrictive, not allowing newlines, which would become "[^"\r\n]*" So "value": "[^"\r\n]*" will find one or more words in the second pair of quotes, without allowing it to go across multiple lines, and might be useful to you.
