How to set Event Rule regex expression to be case-insensitive for Event Management

KB Summary by Now Assist

Issue

Description

When configuring Event Rule, to transform information in fields - regex mode, the regex engine is case-sensitive by default.

For example, for string:

Test[Test]PRiority:P2[Test]

Below filter won't return any result:

.*Priority:P(\d).*

 

It's necessary to wrap both uppercase and lowercase of each character in square brackets to complete the OR operator. 

For example, for string:

Test[Test]PRiority:P2[Test]

Below filter will return the number 2:

.*[P|p][R|r][I|i][O|o][R|r][I|i][T|t][Y|y]:P(\d).*
