Hint: []

stands for a caret.
Solved it by doing these steps:
- Do a find and replace for regex
"ID" : "\d+"
and replacing it with a string which I know does not exist anywhere in the file (I replaced it with"ID" : "xyz"
- Make a multiple selection on
"ID" : "xyz"
- Using the Text Pastry plugin "Number Sequence (\i)" on the multiple selection
With the new add-text-with-sequence feature of the Text Pastry plugin, it's even a step less:
- Find all
"ID" : "\d+"
(with regex search activated) - In the Text Pastry Command Line, enter
as "ID" : "0"
