Hi, I have applied validation code for field-
add question - contact number
type- Numeric
The validation code used by me is : regex(.,’^[0-9]{10}$’)
When I deploy the form, on the ODK collect, only 9 digits can be entered. It does not allow entry of 10th digit.
Using the same regular expression as validation to restrict to 6 digits is possible.
What can be another validation code that can be used ?
Hi Sayali,
The ‘number’ / ‘integer’ question type is restricted to no more than 9 digits. To work around this you can create a text question, which allows any number of characters. Your regex already restricts your input to numbers of course. Finally, to show the number keyboard on Android devices even when using a text question just set the appearance of the question to ‘numbers’.
Best,
Tino
