Advanced filter/search return exact results

Archived from the Bravo community forum (2021–2026). Some answers may refer to older versions of Bravo.

Anybody know how to make an advanced filter/search only return results when you search the exact name of something? I'm making an app where I'm basically using search/filter as a password checker for coupon QR codes that can be scanned at a restaurant. So you would have a passcode and type that into the field and it returns a QR code coupon that you can scan for deals at a restaurant. The problem is, if for example I have the passcode "1234" I can type "123" and it still appears as a returned result. I need it to only appear when someone would type the exact full code, "1234" in this case. How would I write that into my api call?

You could possibly use filterByFormula in your request if you're using airtable
