Hey all,

As the title suggests i am looking for a way to query fields based on regex pattern matching.

Is it somehow possible to query an entity field (string) with a regex pattern ? I am pretty sure Apollo client supports this but i am not sure if The Graph accepts those queries since i haven’t found anything related to it.

Another option is to utilize full text searches but I also am not sure if they support regex.

Any help is appreciated!
