Wildcard filter docs clarification #1431
Description
In the docs for filtering the REST API is the following phrase:
Wildcard searches for characters using starts with, ends with, and contains-based searches are supported starting in Tableau Cloud May 2023 and Tableau Server 2022.1.14.
No field on any object shows support for contains, startswith, or endswith.
Can we get some clarification on what objects and fields support these operators and the exact syntax used?

Filing this against the Tableau REST API docs team internally rather than keeping it open here — the docs are owned outside this repo. Closing as "not planned" for TSC; the documentation fix is being tracked by the docs team.
