Wildcards in action/group rules

Hello

I'm running into an issue when i try to create a action/group rule with a certain "wildcard" in the if statement.
I've been told that this is possible, but i don't know the correct syntax. 

Eg:

I want all the printers of level 12 to be selected and moved to another group. The issue is that the current group has also printers from another level and they are within the same subnet. So the only way of identefying  a specific printer via the device name. (printer names: printer-12-01, printer-12-02, ....printer-13-01,....)

With the filter in the picture above the rule does not work. I also tried with ".*-12-.*" without any luck. 

Are wildcards in if statements possible? if so, what's the correct syntax to be used?

Good day,

Thank you for contacting SOTI Pulse.

I am currently looking into the feasibility of this and testing this internally. 

I will have to run some tests to be sure on whether or not we fully support the request. 

If we don't support it, we will have to raise a feature request for this. 

Prior to raising a feature request, I would like to confirm with our SME's if they have any work arounds for your request also. 

Please allow me some time to completed the tests, I will get back to you once I have either completed the tests or if any further information is required to proceed.

Have a great day.

Good morning, 

Thank you for posting in SOTI Pulse and I apologise for the delay in getting back to you. 

At present, when working on this with our SOTI Connect SMEs, we are learning towards this being expected behaviour. We are going to complete further testing as I will confirm it with you definitely if this is something we would need to raise a feature request for. 

Thank you for your time and understanding. 

Kind regards,
