Test a translation rule
applyTranslationRule applies a translation rule to a number and returns the result, without changing anything. Use it to validate a rule before you save it on an object; the panel calls it to check every translation rule field when you save a form. It works for the CLD and CLI translation rules of accounts, account classes, authentication rules of accounts and DIDs, and connections. The rule syntax is explained in number translation.
