Validate password rules

[Muneer_Alrashdan]

who I can check if the Password field should contain at least eight characters, including at least one number, and includes
Letters. If not should throw a business exception “invalid password”

[rikulsilva (Henrique Lima)]

Hi,

If you have the password as string, you can put this expression in IF CONDICTION

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(variable_text,"(?=.{8,}$)(?=.*[0-9])")

Hey

try the following, it will look for minimum eight characters, at least one letter and one number

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(stringVar, "^(?=.*[A-Za-z])(?=.*\d)[A-Za-z\d]{8,}$")

Hi @Muneer_Alrashdan

I see you have three requirements to check. The password must contain:

• Atleast 8 characters
• atleast 1 number
• includes letters

Lets say your password is of type string called ‘strPassword’:

To check for 8 characters simply:
Trim and check the length.

To Trim:
strPassword.Trim

Check Length:
Insert ‘IF’ activity and nsert the following into the condition:
strPassword.Length < 8

Then: Insert Throw activity
Else: Insert log message with ‘strPassword.Length.ToString’

To check the password contains atleast 1 number
Use a Regex.IsMatch with an IF activity. Insert the following into the condition:
system.text.regularexpressions.regex.IsMatch(strPassword, “\d”)

Then: Insert Log message “Password contains atleast 1 number”
Else: Insert Throw activity

To check the password contains atleast 1 letter
Use a Regex.IsMatch with an IF activity. Insert the following into the condition:
system.text.regularexpressions.regex.IsMatch(strPassword, “[A-Za-z]”)

Then: Insert Log message “Password contains atleast 1 letter”
Else: Insert Throw activity

.

BONUS Requirements

To check the password contains atleast 1 uppercase/capital letter
Use a Regex.IsMatch with an IF activity. Insert the following into the condition:
system.text.regularexpressions.regex.IsMatch(strPassword, “[A-Z]”)

Then: Insert Log message “Password contains atleast 1 capital letter”
Else: Insert Throw activity

To check the password contains atleast 1 lowercase letter
Use a Regex.IsMatch with an IF activity. Insert the following into the condition:
system.text.regularexpressions.regex.IsMatch(strPassword, “[a-z]”)

Then: Insert Log message “Password contains atleast 1 lowercase letter”
Else: Insert Throw activity

You can learn Regex from these two sources:

[CheatSheet] - System.Text.RegularExpressions | RegEx

This CheatSheet introduces the basic use of regex functions. With further examples also special cases are presented. Introduction From the namespace System.Text.RegularExpressions following methods are offered: Regex.Match Regex.Matches Regex.isMatch Regex.Replace Regex.Split A simple usage for example would look like this: [grafik] Recommendation: add System.Text.RegularExpressions to the imports: [grafik] it allows to use the shortened statement, as the namespace part can be ommited…
