This Example Lab project demonstrates how to restrict the accepted input of a Form textbox to a specific input type and length.
Explanation
This Example Lab project allows for the input of a Form textbox to be restricted to a number that's exactly 13 digits long. The Flow displays a Form using the 'Masked Text Box' Form component and with the 'Value Type' as 'Custom'. This will allow a RegEx equation for only a numeric expression of the desired length to be set. Any input that is not all numbers and is not exactly 13 digits long will not be submittable.
