In Import Agent, when configuring the General tab you can add a Filter. The only thing you can filter on though is document extension. It would be great if you could filter based on file name and be able to use regular expressions.

Hi Blake,
Import Agent supports some wildcard character, see the online help. There are some notes under here. See sample below:

@████████, thank you for clarifying that. I guess I would change the request to update the user interface so it is clearer what you can do when adding a filter. When you first click on the Add Filter button it displays a drop-down field, which makes it appear that you can only filter based on document extension. I would not have guessed that I could type in my own values because it is a drop-down field. Even a paragraph above the drop-down field with an explanation of what can be done with the field would be great.
