String pattern matching in provisioning policies
Provisioning policies can be written to do a substring match on account attributes, using the wildcard character. Select the Regular Expression menu option in the Expression Type field, and the regular expression can be written in this form: .*<value>.*
When using regular expressions special characters must be escaped using a backslash (\), and the a wildcard is escaped using a dot. The table below details the special characters and how to escape them.
