Using Regular Expression Check as a validator in Workflow transition

[Michelle Gronwold]

Question, I have a single line text field called "Activity Rationale". I created a validator in a workflow transition to verify the text entered in this field is in a range of 1-200 characters long (below). But it is not working. Even if I enter just a couple of words in this field I will get the error message below. Is it because it is a text field that allows spaces? I'm stumped.

Regular Expression Check (JSU)

• Field to be checked: Activity Rationale
• Regular expression: ^[*]{1,200}$
• Concatenate multiple values: false
• Split on newline characters: false
• Error message (optional): Activity Rationale field is limited to 200 characters

Hi @Michelle Gronwold

Can you check and try this?

^.{1,200}$

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
