Filtering results at single object endpoint

I guess (based on [v4] Filters in `findOne` controller doesn't work · Issue #12208 · strapi/strapi · GitHub) the findOne just does not support filtering.

My current solution was to do this:


    async findOne(ctx) {
      const { user } = ctx.state;
      const { id } = ctx.params;
      if (user && typeof user !== 'undefined') {
        const entity = await strapi.db.query(contentType).findMany({
          where: {
            id,
            owner: user.id
          }
        });
        const sanitizedEntity = await this.sanitizeOutput(entity, ctx);
        return this.transformResponse(sanitizedEntity);
      } else {
        const sanitizedResults = await this.sanitizeOutput({}, ctx);
        return this.transformResponse(sanitizedResults, {});
      }
    },

But that is not ideal either. I would rather return 404 response in the else part, but I’m not sure how to do that exactly.
