When substr is not of the form /pattern/flags it is a literal, case-SENSITIVE search and only the FIRST occurrence is replaced. A /pattern/flags value runs as a JS-style regex; ALL occurrences are replaced only with the g flag. A leading slash without a closing slash plus valid flag letters (e.g. the path "/api/v1") is treated as a literal, and an invalid regex outputs the input unchanged.
A typical wiring for replace: value feeds the value pin; convert to uppercase feeds the substr pin; the value out pin feeds substring.
