Hi there, please take a look at [this thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/kibanas-filter-partial-matching/98494/8) in which another user asked a similar question. The solution is to use the "Edit Query DSL" option to handcraft a [wildcard query](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/query-dsl-wildcard-query.html).

Hope this helps,  
CJ
