Hey,

Have you explored on Variable Validation Regex?

It is a no code way for validating catalog variables using Regular expression.

Your regular expression would be something like this:

/^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]){6,8}$/ where it means it can have size from 6 to 8, if you want only lower limit you can update as (6,}

Below article helps you to achieve this

Hi @Suresh karedla,

You have to use the max_length=7 as variable attributes for Customer Codes[customer_code] variable in MRVS * annotations as

Enter Customer Codes up-to 5 characters only

For Regular expression, you to add new regex in Service Catalog ---> Catalog Variables ---> Variable Validation Regex with your message.

Regex - ^[a-zA-Z0-9]*$

Result -
