Validation of repeated characters in a Text value
Hello,
I am having a requirement where in the First Name or Last Name should not have a character repeating more than 2 times. For example: if the name is "Aberdeeen", then this is not valid; if the name is "Bobby", then this is valid.
I'm trying to find a solution for this, but unable to formulate one. Please help on this one.
Thanks.

use an edit validate to test
(.)\1{3}
this regex matches repeated characters using backreferences to a previous match character 3 times.

@Mukesh-Agrawal So instead of that (.) I should use the property right? I have used a function to validate this previously which is attached below, so is this function can be used instead of Edit Validate.
Also can I able to call Edit Validate to the Data Transform? I need to set a property value based on the result of that edit validate.
