Email validation

[41319]

when using directus API, to create a user, I can send a invalid email in the body of the post. And this email will still be accepted.

Is there some form of validation in place? Or do I need to write it myself?

Thanks

@wellingguzman Would adding a validation regex to the directus_fields column work in this instance?

Yes, adding a regex in directus_fields for the email field should fix this.

@cheehau as now you have to do it yourself.

I will fix this to support field validation by default on users email.

I added a new custom validation named $email that you can use to validate email.

After the next release, directus_users.email will be validate by default. Current user will need to upgrade their database, or add $email to directus_users.email in directus_fields table.

@cheehau if you can't wait on the release, you can add a custom regex to validate the field.
