Overview of Regular Expression Functions
Regular Expression functions serve as a powerful tool within the Viewer App, allowing users to define complex search patterns and manipulate text-based data effortlessly. These functions enable users to specify patterns of characters they are looking for within a given dataset, making it easier to extract specific information or perform data transformations. By using regex functions, users can perform tasks such as finding and replacing text, extracting data based on predefined patterns, and validating input against specific criteria.
toRegex

{{test "foobar" (toRegex "foo")}}
<!-- results in: true -->
{{test "foobar" (toRegex "^foo$")}}
<!-- results in: false -->
