Using Split to extract subsctring

Lisa Mendonsa

Hi everyone

I have a string (Jira Summary) that might look like this

<Some text> - <some more text> - <ID>

OR

<Some text> - <ID>

I basically want to get the value of the ID after the last '-'. 

If I use split() function, how can I reference the last occurrence/item in the returned list?

Thanks in advance

Lisa
