I have a variable that contains the full company name and CNPJ. I am using

verificaCnpj = re.search("\d{2}.\d{3}.\d{3}/\d{4}-\d{2}", variavel)

to locate the CNPJ (because there are other variables that DO NOT CONTAIN CNPJ, and should be discarded).

I want to REPLACE this variable so that it contains ONLY the CNPJ, discarding the company name. What is the best way to do this?

Just call the group()

cnpj = re.search("\d{2}.\d{3}.\d{3}/\d{4}-\d{2}", variavel).group()

    Before the call of group it will be necessary to check if the text has the CNPJ, otherwise the function search will return None.
