Check Format of Email Adddress

Hello All,

I have a process to send E-mails to a list of email ids from excel data,flow is working fine for correct formated E-mails, but it stops on bad formated email.

I want to check the format of Email ID given in the excel in Desicion activity and then write result.

Please Help.

Hi @Aditipatil,

use “Is Match” activity
Properties

  1. input ->“arivu@xxx.yyy
    2.Pattern ->”^([\w.-]+)@([\w-]+)((.(\w){2,3})+)$"
    3.Result->(Boolean value)

you can verify the email id is correct format or not based on this Boolean value

Arivu

Hi @Aditipatil,

Can you try this pattern in regex

(?:[A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'+/=?^_{|}~-]+(?:\.[A-Za-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_{|}~-]+)|"(?:[\x01-\x08\x0b\x0c\x0e-\x1f\x21\x23-\x5b\x5d-\x7f]|\[\x01-\x09\x0b\x0c\x0e-\x7f])")@(?:(?:A-Za-z0-9?.)+A-Za-z0-9?|[(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?).){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?|[a-z0-9-][a-z0-9]:(?:[\x01-\x08\x0b\x0c\x0e-\x1f\x21-\x5a\x53-\x7f]|\[\x01-\x09\x0b\x0c\x0e-\x7f])+)])
