WSO2 IS whitespaces inside password policy

I have set the following password policy [\sa-zA-Z0-9]{10,30}$ in WSO2 IS in Identity Provider->Resident->Password Policies->Password Patterns.

I have added the \s to support the white spaces but I get an error when trying to add a password with a white spaced within it.

Caused by: org.wso2.carbon.user.core.UserStoreException: 30003 - Credential is not valid. Credential must be a non null string with following format, ^[\S]{5,30}$

I use WSO2 IS 5.9.

Do I have to set any other special characters in the regular expression or to do additional configuration in WSO2 IS?

There is a regex validation at the user-store level too. You can change them by adding the following config to the deployment.toml and restart the server. (Note: If [user_store] is already defined in the deployment.toml add these configs under the same tag)

[user_store]
password_java_regex="^[\\sa-zA-Z0-9]{10,30}$"
password_java_script_regex="^[\\sa-zA-Z0-9]{10,30}$"

Once the server gets restarted you can see the modified values of PasswordJavaRegEx (regex for backend validation in userstore level) and PasswordJavaScriptRegEx (regex for UI validation) in <wso2is>/repository/conf/user-mgt.xml file.
