Match by prefix or substring

[manelio]

In a hardware shop my products are idenfied by codes as follows:

01010250010B
01010250015Z
02010740045Z

This is how I set the attribute:

await Promise.all([
  api.put('indexes/products/settings/searchable-attributes', [ 'code' ]),
  api.put('indexes/products/settings/sortable-attributes', [ 'code' ])
])

Question:

Is there any way to allow partial matches on this code? For example, when searching for 0101 it would return

01010250010B
01010250015Z

But not

02010740045Z

It would be sufficient to match by prefix, although ideally it should find prefix, suffix or substring.

My mistake. The prefix search works and I see that the substring or suffix search is not possible.

Apologies.
