Q: Why do work item queries that use the “Like” operator fail to return any results?

  • Article

A: In this release, the query builder requires the use of the SQL wildcard character ("%") in work item queries containing the "Like" operator. For example, to search for any work items containing the word "window" in the title, you would specify the following clause:

Field

Operator

Value

Title

Like

%window%
