I was creating a prompt in incident IQ to where if someone emails a specific email address it'll create a ticket based on what's in the subject/body of the email says when I type in the value %wifi%  and then send an email to that address the ticket is created with no issues, but when I use the value
%(network|wifi|internet)% and send a email with all other rules being the same the ticket isnt being created. Using the value tester it says all expressions are passed successfully as long as I include any of the words network, wifi, or internet. Am I structuring the values wrong?

@RMiller 170eb10 stjohn Thank you for submitting your question to our community and thank you for your patience as I reached out to ​@AElow_iiQ for support! 😄  

If the above value is not working you may need to add each word individually as OR statements. 

Instead of using a combined expression like %(network|wifi|internet)%, you would set up your email rules like this:

  • Condition 1: Subject/Body contains %network%

  • OR Condition 2: Subject/Body contains %wifi%

  • OR Condition 3: Subject/Body contains %internet%
