Regexp and LocaleStrings

This article explains what to do if you get a message about regexp validation of LocaleStrings when importing data in Enrich using Excel.

Problem

When you try to import data in Enrich using an Excel file, you might get the below or a similar error message: 

Application_ja-JP-Value does not match regular expression for field (pattern: ^.{0,20000}$)

Solution 

Inriver doesn't yet support regexp in LocaleStrings. There is a bug that causes this error message to be shown even though regex validation isn't supported. Moreover, the error message sometimes incorrectly report an error even when the data is fine. 

The short-term solution is to to comment out the current regexp in the Excel import for LocaleString until there is a solution in place.
