Unable to search for part of experiment name in Signals Notebook

For supported operators and query examples, please refer to our User Guide -> Searching in Signals Notebook.

Our search index (using elastic) separates text into words for indexing. It uses a variety of characters to identify one word from the next, obviously a space but also "/" and "-". However "_" is not recognized as such. This usage is common among applications using elastic search in the core.

Also, we don't allow leading wildcards like (*), e.g. *AC16. Again, this is something that elastic search just doesn't support.

Therefore if you have a string such as "ABCD_EFG-12345" this will be treated as two words for searching. You can search for "12345", you can search for "ABCD_EFG", you can search for "ABCD*", you can search for ""ABCD_EFG-12345"". However you will not retrieve that record via a search for "EFG" or "EFG*". And a search like "*EFG" is not supported.
