Usage of regular expressions in SFTP sender

Currently we have the following scenario:

We have a SFTP location were files are uploaded (without extension). These files have a fixed name, but when they are in the process op being uploaded the character 'C' is appended to the name.

In the SFTP sender channel we only want to pick up the files that are not extended with 'C' and are not in file lock mode. We have added a regular expression to the file name, but this does not seem to work (in PI this works).

My question is whether this is correct behavior and/or that regex support will be added in the future or if there is an alternative way of achieving this.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Sriprasad,

Thanks for your answer! Shortly after posting the question I've found it to. However, I would like to apply more advanced regex as seen in below screenshot. Is this possible at this moment? I understood that PI is able to do it.

Thanks in advance!
