Is it possible to use regex on qrs api filtering?

AKN — Tue, 28 May 2024 09:07:02 GMT

$.ajax({ method: "GET", url: `/qrs/app/full?xrfKey=${xrfKey}&filter=tags.name eq ${regex}`, headers: { "X-Qlik-Xrfkey": xrfKey, }, })

Similar to this where I only get the apps with matching regex tag.

The available filtering options can be found here, it does not include regex string, but you can generally get similar with a mix of sw, ew & so

Hi @AKN,

You cannot do it but, what about getting the list of all app names with Ids, store it somewhere - to not have to list it every single time (if this is a problem), and later apply the RegEx filter?

Hi,

I'd rather not get all of the apps and then filter. I think it's better for me to filter directly using qrs api.

So what I did now is tags.name ew " Report", it works fine.
