How do I perform a fuzzy search via the API?

Question

Want to perform a fuzzy search to, for example, find similarly-spelled attribute values?

Answer

Fuzzy Search can be performed as below - 

GET {{tenantURL}}/entities?filter=fuzzy(<attribute>,<value>) 

The following example finds entities where the “Name” attribute is close to the value “Smith”.

{{tenantURL}}/entities?filter=fuzzy(attributes.Name,'Smith')

The documentation below shows how to use fuzzy filtering in Reltio, with examples. The last documentation link gives additional info about the Search with Cursor functionality, which may fit your search needs as well.
