Is it possible to use where with the Content Query API (using Endpoints)?

[nobkd]

I wanted to use the API routes with a where query like using queryContent(). Is that possible?

If it's possible, I'd like a simple example like:
queryContent().where({ _path: {$contains: 'a'}}).find() translated to
$fetch('/api/_content/query?where=___') or how it works.

The docs don't specify how it should be done... After looking at the source code of the query module, I've figured out that you could send JSON parameters to the API 👇

const query = {
  where: { _path: { $contains: "a" } }
};

const response = axios.get(`/api/_content/query?_params=${JSON.stringify(query)}`);

This should return all articles containing "a" in their _path.

Thank you 🙏

EDIT: If someone wants to write the query without using the JSON.stringify(query) method, the route for the request looks like this:

/api/_content/query?_params={"where":{"_path":{"$contains":"a"}}}

=> The keys and values are wrapped in quotes

• Regex querys(+flags) are also wrapped in quotes: {"where":{"_path":{"$regex":"/a$/i"}}} => returns pages whose paths end on a or A
• regex(+flags) have to be wrapped in quotes in the not stringified object notation too
• It's mandatory to use double quotes ", single quotes ' won't work
