# Extract Numbers

**Introduction**

The "Extract Numbers" step identifies and extracts all numeric values from a given text string. This step is useful for isolating numbers within a text for further processing or calculations.

**Configuration**

* **Value**: The text string from which numbers will be extracted. This parameter is required.
* **Decimal Separator**: Defines the character used as the decimal separator in the numbers. The default is `"."`, but you can customize it. This parameter is required.

**Outputs**

* **Numbers**: A list of extracted numbers from the provided text. These numbers can be used in subsequent steps or actions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.flexy.bot/modules/text/steps/extract-numbers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
