"Use Expressions" in searches

edited Dec 2, 2019 3:10PM in SuiteCloud / Customization 2 comments

I am trying to create a search via web services to retrieve a list of cases which have a customstringfield that match a dynamic external list.

My test WS search works when hard coding a single SearchStringCustomField - but because it is a string type I can only use the @is operator.

I'm guessing because of the type I won’t be able to use anyOf etc.

If I wanted to do this in the UI I would simply click "Use Expressions", throw in some parenthesis and some OR operators and add in the multiple lines.

Can I activate “Expressions mode” in WS? Any examples? Other solutions?

Howdy, Stranger!
