using accented characters

[ROUSSET]

Hi there,

I'm a rookie using confluence so be kind with me :)

I'm looking for the string "préféré"

If I type pref* : ok

If I type pré* : bad

I don't understand ...

Thanks for all explanations you could give to me

Hello @ROUSSET ,

Can you please give a little more information on what is OK and BAD ? :)

Do you use Advanced Confluence search or is it inside some specific macro?

Thanks

Hello @Andrii Maliuta ,

Thanks for your answer and your help.

Ok means the request returns teh correct value, BAD no value returned.

I suppose I use Advanced Confluence because it is not inside a macro ... but not sure.

@ROUSSET ,

thanks for clarification. The search syntax has some rules of setting query for data fetching. It is described here - https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/confluence-search-syntax/. Some masks can behave different depending on the query itself and the characters used.

Here is the link to advanced guide for developers, but anyway it can give some better undestanding of how CQL querying works - https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/advanced-searching-using-cql/

You can check the cases you use there.

Hope this helps.
