You can use

(?<=\[)\d{1,2}\.\d{1,2}\.\d{2}(?:\d{2})?(?=\])

See the regex demo.

Details:

  • (?<=\[) - a positive lookbehind that matches a location that is immediately preceded with a [ char -\d{1,2} - one or two digits
  • \. - a dot
  • \d{1,2}\. - one or two digits and a dot
  • \d{2}(?:\d{2})? - two or four digits
  • (?=\]) - a positive lookahead that matches a location that is immediately preceded with a ] char.
