Your search query returns a "reverse-query feature required" error

Question

I tried searching for all the users who live in the state of Oregon, but all I got back was the error message that said that a "reverse-query feature" was required. What does that mean?

Answer

Here's what that means: in order to use a wildcard character at the beginning of a string, the attribute you are searching on (in this case, email) must be configured as a reverse-queryable attribute. (Which, for our purposes, simply means that you can use a wildcard at the beginning of a search value that references that attribute.) To have an attribute marked as reverse-queryable, contact your Akamai representative.

For more information on wildcards and how they can (and cannot) be used in the Console, see Wildcard Characters.
