Hello,
I have many items with similar email addresses, lets say:
Lastname@gmail.com
FirstnameLastname@gmail.com

Now I want to search only for Lastname@gmail.com, how do I do that?
When I search for this email it also shows all items with FirstnameLastname@gmail.com. I dont want that.

Can you help me?

Thanks.

Hey @oschif, thanks for reaching out.

You could try the Ctrl + Alt + F keyboard shortcut to filter for partial word matches.

Let me know if that yields the results you're looking for!

No, this doesnt help.

When I try to search for Lastname@gmail.com it still also shows results for FirstnameLastname@gmail.com

I dont want it to show FirstnameLastname@gmail.com
I need only results for Lastname@gmail.com

Thanks.

Hey @oschif, thanks for getting back to us. I apologize I misunderstood your initial question.

It's not actually possible to filter for exact word matches. If you could tell me a little more about your use case, I'll be happy to pass that information along to our Product team as a feature request.

Hi,
well my use case is basically what I already described.
I have accounts with email address in format FirstnameLastname@gmail.com
But I also have accounts using address Lastname@gmail.com

I sometimes need to find all my accounts that use Lastname@gmail.com
But thats not user friendly because the search also lists all accounts using FirstnameLastname@gmail.com

So I want to just list accounts with email Lastname@gmail.com

It would be great if you could implement it.
For example exact match search shouldn't be hard to implement.

Thanks.

Let me know if there's anything else we can help with!

I have exactly the same problem as @oschif . When I search for the website: nu.nl, the result is a list, containing all nu's, nl's and other rubbish. In other softwareprograms, I can ask then: search "nu.nl", between quotationmarks. Then the results are exactly what I want.

And, in addition to the above remark, in the Windows desktop program, the search between quotation marks does not work. But, surprisingly, in the Android app on my phone, searching between quotationmarks gives the exact results.
