Hello,
check your rights on userOnline, and otherwise you can use qs library to help you write the syntax easily in js

check rights? where exactly?

7

My frontend is react. Seems like qs uses that other module system require('qs'). But my react frontend imports modules.
Right?
I dont mind trying the qs library. Just a slight inconvenience to build a dummy project just to generate queries

8

And no, your qs lib suggestion did not generate for me a working syntax

Here’s the relations field . It can be empty (null).
If that help in giving me indeas…

10

Could it be because the field is text, not numberic??

11

But when I tried with $eq, it also dont filter

12

check your rights on userOnline
Yes, I checked those 2 places. Nothing that I can see that would hinder my filter GET

13

users & permissions plugin > roles

14

check maybe public or authenticated

15

no you can use it with import

16

there’s also "@types/qs" if you’re using typescript
