How to query outlook contacts by phone number?

Question

I'm trying to create an intergration with outlook contacts using the microsoft graph api, when i try and query contacts by phone number with:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/contacts?$filter=businessPhones/any(n:n eq '02079460121') 

I get an error 'The query filter contains one or more invalid nodes.'. I can't figuire out from the documentation why this query isn't working.

Hi @Mediafields Web Development ,

For this user-list-contacts API you can use $filter, any, and the eq operator on only the address sub-property of instances in an emailAddresses collection.

You can use the $filter query parameter to filter contacts based on their email addresses.

Refere this more details on the $filter query for /contact Graph API.
