I have an input string which data is coming in the following format:

How can I extract only name, name1, name2, etc. from this string?

Here is what I have tried:

SiteName = (Url.Substring("http://testing/site/".Length)).Substring(Url.Length-12)

It is throwing an exception stating StartIndex cannot be greater than the number of characters in the string. What is wrong with my expression? How can I fix it? Thanks.

    A better option will be to use Regex matching/replace

    But the following will also work based on the assumption that all the urls will be similar in pattern

    var value = Url.Replace(@"http://testing/site/", "").Replace(@"/lists/tasks", "");

    The other option will be to use Uri

    var uriAddress = new Uri(@"http://testing/site/name/lists/tasks");

    then breaking down uri parts according to your requirement
