REGEX that requires an underscore and max of 10 characters

[kdelbridge]

I have a requirement for a variable to have the following requirements when user is filling out a form via our Employee Center.

• cannot exceed 10 characters
• must contain an underscore (_)
• Must contain site identifier

I have already help text example  "DH_1234567", but really wanted to ensure we ensure no more than 10 characters and contains underscore.

I have tried the following and it is not working;

^[A-Z]{2}_[0-9]{1,7}$

and I also tried this

^(?i)[A-Za-z0-9]*_[0-9]{1,7}$

neither of these worked. Can anyone assist with what I might be missing.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @kdelbridge 

If the validation is just to ensure length of variable value and underscore, you can use below script. No regex is needed.

var variableValue = g_form.getValue("variable_name");

if (variableValue.length>10 || variableValue.indexOf('_')<0)

@kdelbridge 

this should work fine

^[A-Z]{2}_[0-9]{1,7}$
