Syntax for email address field input mask?

BrentKinal1

I feel like in a past post I saw some syntax for using an input mask for an email address field, If I wasn't dreaming this and one exists please share the syntax.

Thanks!

Hi Brent,

Input masks don't work with arbitrary length text portions, as you would expect from parts of an e-mail address. As documented, you can use a regex function to validate an email address:

regex(., '^(([^<>()\[\]\\.,;:\s@"]+(\.[^<>()\[\]\\.,;:\s@"]+)*)|(".+"))@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}])|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$')

Please disregard my question, I see that in the mobile app, the user must submit the form before the user gets the error message (a little different than in the web browser). Thank you!

Thank you and this works great when the user completes the form through a web browser, however, the constraint does not appear to get carried over to the mobile app. Is there a way to ensure users enter only email addresses in the mobile app too?

Hi, @JamesTedrick I tired the syntax in the constraint field, but it doesn't appear to work on Connect v3.22.49

Hi,

The regex needs to be inputed into the "constraint" column in your XLSForm. Also, it seems like the preview won't show the validation, but it works well when the form in published. Hope this helps

I'm getting this text populating 3.14 Survey123 Connect.

I haven't used the email body::esri:inputMask in a while, what am I doing wrong?
