SSN Regex Search

Hi,

How can I search for SSN regex pattern which overwhelms special dash
character issue?

As you know that /[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{4}/ will not work as intended.

Kind Regards,
Furkan KAMACI

First I wouldn't use regex queries, they're expensive.
WordDelimiter(Graph)Filter is designed for these use cases, have you
considered that?

And what do you mean: "special dash character issue"? Yes, it's the NOT
operator, but you can always escape it.

Best,
Erick
