Hi @amiller. You can use _regex match_ in the conditions. This allows users to have a more complex validations.

> We are pleased to announce that have added support to using regular expression (RegEx) in the conditions. Using RegEx for setting up conditions provides users with enhanced flexibility. An example of this is validating the format of an ID number. For more information, you can visit this article: [How to use regular expressions for conditions?](https://docs.miniextensions.com/en/articles/7222749) Your feedback is valuable to us, and we would love to hear any comments or suggestions you may have. Please do not hesitate to share your though…

If you are not familiar with regex, you can ask AI such as ChatGPT to help generate one for you. Here’s an example of a regex that accepts values for a field with a length of up to 10 characters or less.

> ^.{1,10}$

Please let me know if there is anything else that we can help you with.
