In the 3cx University Training it mentions you can use wildcards.
"use the * as a wildcard."
Is it only wildcard or can I use regex? Can I use multiple?

Can the wildcard be in the middle of the number or does it have to be on the ends?

I'd like to match 555-444-3333
could I do 555*3333? or would I need to do 555***3333

what if some of my trunk adds the +1 prefix? would I have to change it to *555*3333?

Hi @clarkjesse,

Having the wildcard at the beginning or end works, but not in the middle as per your example. Putting a *555 would match anything ending with 555, in your example 555-444-333 could be matched by 555* or *333 for example. Of course you could match it in other ways, not having to use 3 threes, but it depends on how many rules you're trying to match and the order you've placed them in.
