Groovy Script iql method

[Crystal Rouse]

I'm looking for information on how to split a string.

This method used to work and return the value that I can use to query our Asset Schema:

def hardwareAssetKeyAbrv = hardwareAsset.toString().substring(hardwareAsset.toString().indexOf("(") + 1).replace(")","").replace("[","").replace("]","");

Something has changed, it now returns the key but also additional text so that the results look like: referenceId=115937

I don't know why the text referenceID= is included in the results, this is something new that changed from November to now.  The same script worked in November and now does not work.

I need the variable to only return the key, not the extra text.  I'm new to groovy script and picking up on code wrote by someone else.  Any help appreciated!

Just guessing here, but something for you to try ...

def hardwareAssetKeyAbrv = hardwareAsset.getId();
