Validation of the Rest Job parameter values can be achieved in Data Apps by setting the appropriate properties in CloverDX Designer. The following types of Rest Job parameters have validation options:

  • Number

  • Integer

  • Long

  • Decimal

  • String

  • Enumeration - if custom values are allowed

Numeric types

For all numeric types, two rules can be set, the minimum and maximum accepted value. For the decimal type, the length and scale can also be set.

String validation

String parameters have four types of validations available, that can be applied at the same time:

  • The minimum and the maximum length for the string.

  • Regular expression.

  • A predefined validation rule.
