Regex Formatting

Question

I have a Regex validation expression to validate phone numbers.  2 questions:

1.  Can I add the substitution code to format the results? For example Phone number validation ^$?([0-9]{3})$?[-.●]?([0-9]{3})[-.●]?([0-9]{4})$

want to add replace ($1) $2-$3 to format the validated numbers.

2.  Would the field be text or number?

The field would be a text field and the text type under Validation would be Custom not Text or Number. Test your expression out within any Regex library.

But as far as I can test myself, DocuSign does NOT suppot change and replace within a Regex expression. Let me know if you're able to get it to work.

Hope this helps.
