Hello,

I am trying to remove the leading zero on a bunch of phone numbers but every regex expression i found out there doesn’t work.  
The numbers look like this : 0475752600  
Numverify fails to enrich if there is a leading zero so I need this : 475752600

Any idea ?

The Use Regex step can help here. You can use `^0*` in the find field, and leave the replace field blank!
