MS-graph API filter

Question

Hello,

from graph-api point of view, I can pull up all the applications whose tags attribute has some literal string as shown below.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications?$filter=tags/any(s:s eq 'Request-number')

However, I can not do following.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications?$filter=tags/any(s:s startsWith 'Request-number')

Appreciate if you help me how can I pull up all the applications which have tag that start with Request-number.
Tags is nothing but collection of strings.
I do not know the full string but I do know it starts with 'Request-number'

Thanks.

Answer 1

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications?$filter=tags/any(c:c eq 'Request-number') worked fine for me.

Used the below Java code snippet to apply the filter on tags.

ApplicationCollectionPage appPage = getGraphApiClient().applications().buildRequest()
                .select("id,appId,identifierUris,appRoles,signInAudience")
                .filter("tags/any(c:c eq 'application_type:resource_server')").get();

Answer 2

I'm not in an oppotunity to this right now, but I think the filter should have a little different syntax like: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications?$filter=startsWith(tags/any(s:s, 'Request-number')

Please let me know if that works for you
