Hello

I have the following code to find out if a string contains dot or not:

if(matches($in.0.Salary_Plan_Amount,"\\.") == true)

But it is not working. Is there another way to do this regex?

Thanks,

  Hi yichuansancun,
  
  There are multiple ways to do this. Let me mention two of them:
  
  CTL fuction contains():
  

  if(contains($in.0.yourField,".")) { ... }

  
  
  Using regex matching operator (~=):
  

  if($in.0.yourField ~= ".*\\..*") { ... }

  
  
  Hope this helps.
