The RESTful API filter for querying devices by attributes, such as serial number, currently requires an exact string match and does not support wildcard or partial-match patterns. This limitation causes difficulty when an attribute field contains concatenated or multi-value data, such as serial numbers for stacked switches, since the filter cannot match on a single component value within that field. This enhancement proposes adding wildcard or partial-match support to the device filter API so that users can query using a substring or pattern rather than the full exact value. This would allow customers to reliably retrieve device records through automation even when attribute fields contain composite or multi-part values, reducing the need for manual workarounds when integrating NetBrain data with external systems.
