Create onChange client script select the particular variable and try below code

var value = g_form.getIntValue("<variable_name>");
if(isNaN(value)||isNaN(newValue)||(newValue < 0)){
g_form.showFieldMsg('<variable_name>','Please enter a numeric positive value!','error');
return;
}else{
g_form.clearMessages();
g_form.hideFieldMsg('<variable_name>',true);
}

Hi Mahfooz,

Use Out-of-box regular expressions to fulfill this criteria.

Go to your variable > "Type specifications" section > Select Validation Regex "Number" from drop-down list. > Save it.

In case, "Number" is not present in drop-down. Create new Validation Regex following this path: Service catalog > Variable Validation Regex > Create New.

Mark this response as correct/helpful if you find it helpful.

Regards,

Shubham

Try a catalog client script.

extract the value "on change".

is the isNaN native javascript function to validate.

Hi,

write onchange client script on that text variable

UI Type - ALL

Script:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
	if (isLoading || newValue == '') {
		return;
	}
	
	var regexp = /^([0-9]+[0-9])/;
	
	if(!regexp.test(newValue))
		{
		alert('Only numbers are allowed');
		g_form.clearValue('variableName');
	}
	
	//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below
	
}
