Validate input

[patsonson]

How do i validate for example a textfield before save like the int field min and max? I want to assure that for example a textfield contains some values. Is it possible to do for example regex and deny save, if it does not caontains approved values.

Or it is possible with hooks to do the same before save on some fields?

Hi
override the view of field in entityDefs
override validate function

an example of custom view creation - https://github.com/espocrm/documenta...ustom-views.md

as example you can get entity Account field shipping address (
application/Espo/Modules/Crm/Resources/metadata/entityDefs/Account.json - fields - "shippingAddress"
/client/modules/crm/src/views/account/fields/shipping-address.js
)

Thank you i will try that. Is it any logic behind where to put "custom"-folders? Tried to figure that out for a while.

(I don't see any pattern in where "custom"-folders are. For example custom/Espo/Custom/ in the example above. And in other examples it's in different places.)
