Saying we should do validation in custom JS is short-sighted at best.

You expect, without docs, the developer to figure out:

  • How to trigger the error message in multiple languages.
  • How to display the error and where and how to do that (JS or jQuery)
  • Expect the developer to know jQuery well enough.

At least give us the Front-end Javascript docs so we an do things properly.

Feels like it's "half done" rather than completely usable, why not add validation by regex as a field to the mapping?

About this "Saying that everything should be fixed by custom code would eventually be annoying."
It's better to ALWAYS have this option rather than beeing blocked with a dead end.

It would make sense if the Country drop-down defaulted to not selected though, that's what everyone will expect when using the validation on it.

Saying that everything should be fixed by custom code would eventually be annoying.

About country what do you mean? if it's a SELECT?
FYI you can add additional validation logique on the pre-event script (configurable in the cloud backend action)

There's no way to force country selection though...

These issues are all on the Cloud back-end inputs.
