Is there a way to use wildcards in the search criteria?  For example, People First Name Contains "*ob" to return all variations of Rob, Bob, etc.

If this doesn't exist currently, is it on the roadmap or can we request it as a feature?

    Hi @Manuel Oliveira, I would also find this option very useful but I couldn't find the option to search by keyword or wildcard. I also followed the links you shared, but couldn't find the option you're referring to - please clarify?

    Many thanks

    Hi Malcolm, you can use filtering options such as this example.

    Also, the search bar at the top of the screen is now also able to look for your search term contained in other words.
