Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

  • More flexible options when adding to the allow and block list filters when importing. Use regular expression option with free text.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • See Explora (Canada) who have already done this. (Their scenario: avoid multiple providers sharing the same events and being duplicated).

Additional context

  • Risk of very complex regex taking up much CPU cycles, so limit somehow (eg string length)
  • Raised at focus group 2026-01-27
