How can I remove [" and "] in KQL from the below column values?

["xyz@test.com"]  
["abc@test.com"]  
["123@test.com"]

Thanks

I guess you would also like to remove the double quotes.

datatable(col:string)
[
     '["xyz@test.com"]'  
    ,'["abc@test.com"]' 
    ,'["123@test.com"]'
]
| extend option_1 = trim(@'^\["|"]$', col)          // Trim opening [" and closing "]
| extend option_2 = trim(@'[[\]"]+', col)           // Trim sequences of the characters [, ] and "
| extend option_3 = extract(@'^\["(.*)"]$', 1, col) // Extract the expression between the opening [" and closing "]
| extend option_4 = tostring(todynamic(col)[0])     // Convert to json (resulting in json array) and retrieve the 1st element
col option_1 option_2 option_3 option_4
["xyz@test.com"] xyz@test.com xyz@test.com xyz@test.com xyz@test.com
["abc@test.com"] abc@test.com abc@test.com abc@test.com abc@test.com
["123@test.com"] 123@test.com 123@test.com 123@test.com 123@test.com
