      Problem Description

      While editing a view, I noticed that my query results change. I defined my view as :

      {$addFields: {
        returnObject: {
          $regexFind: {
            input: "$Job", regex: /\[(.*)\]/    }
        }
      }

      But when I click "modify source" the view is now defined as:

      [{$addFields: {
        returnObject: {
          $regexFind: {
            input: '$Job',
            regex: RegExp('\[(.*)\]')
          }
        }
      }
      

      This is creating a different capture in the $regexFind. This may be a server bug, but the re-writing of the query exposed this. Saving the query as a view does not cause the view definition to be re-written – it's only on modifying it. I raised SERVER-55583 to check on the syntax difference. You can see that report for raw repro.
