I am writing a task that get input from a share ( the %rs_text variable ) and parses it to create a https://wa.me/mobile_number url that I can pass to whatsapp, without having to add it to my contacts

I am using a dummy task that set the variable and process it.

it's tel:0039italian_mobile_number
If I put tel: in search it strips it.

If I put ^tel: instead it does not matches.

Same if in the following step I put ^00 .

I'm missing something really simple here?

Use variable split: 
splitter: tel:
