Apply validation rules for Widget properties | Widget Properties | Validation Rules

Hi team,

Need to know how to apply validation rules on widget properties. Like suppose I'm using the [EditingComponent(TextInputComponent.IDENTIFIER, Label = "{$Atlas.QuoteWidget.Author$}", Order = 3, Tooltip = "{$Atlas.tooltip.QuoteAuthor$}")] into the widget properties and I need to validate that user only fill 50 character on the text box so, how I do that.

Can any one share the details.

You can set a DataAnnotation attribute on the widget properties. Something like:

    [MaxLength(50, ErrorMessage = "Text must not contain more than 50 characters")]

Thanks Marcel Vriend, but in case only the message shown, I need to show the message with field name and the field comes from the localization. So in that case I create our own custom DataAnnotation attribute like:-

[MaxWordDataValidation(50, "Localization Key Name")] [EditingComponent(TextInputComponent.IDENTIFIER, Label = "{$Localization Key Name$}", Order = 3, Tooltip = "{$Localization Key Name$}")]

And its worked.

Hi Pankaj,

According to the documentation here, you should be able to achieve this by applying MaxLength attribute on top of your editing component.

Hi Dmitry,

But in case using the MaxLength the error massage content is static, what will do if you want to show message content dynamic like:

"Person Name" must not contain more than 50 characters
