Hi,

I have created a multistep form as follows. The Email is the standard column from the Contact table. Without adding any regex validation, there seems to be some sort of validation on the email column. Could someone please point me to any documentation on what is the current validation in place and where is this configured in dataverse.

Hi @cwarshaw1,

this is a microsoft .Net page for Emailvalidation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/how-to-verify-that-strings-are-in-valid-email-format
From what I come across usually emails work with text@text.abbreviation That's why your email test@.com does not work.

Hope that helps

Thanks. @Lucas001 My question was with the regard to existing vanilla validation in place on the dataverse Contact.Email column. Do you know what validation is in place by default.

Hi @prathyoo,

the only thing I am aware of is the list included here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/data-platform/data-validation-email-column
Unfortunately they don't let you know the regex syntax.
What you could try is, creating your own rules for email validation by using a text column instead an email one and apply your rule by following the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLPYefNACuU

Hope that helps.
