Filters

Use the following filters to focus only on the data you need.

📘

Escaping reserved characters

If you need to use any of the characters which function as operators in your query itself (and not as operators), then you should escape them with a leading backslash. For instance, to search for external_links:https://www.linkedin.com*, you would need to write your query as external_links:https://www.linkedin.com*

The reserved characters are: + - = && || > < ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ /

Failing to escape these special characters correctly could lead to a syntax error which prevents your query from running.
