How do i search for a contact by email address using the new v8 API?

Hi,

I’ve just started using the new v8 API and I can successfully get an access token and get a contact using filter by first name;

{url}/api/v8/modules/Contacts?filter[Contacts.first_name]=[[li]]tes%

And it works :slight_smile:

But I’m trying to lookup by email. I know that the emails are stored on a separate table so I’ve trying to access it through the API using;

{url}//api/v8/modules/EmailAddresses?filter[EmailAddresses.email_address]=[[li]]tes%

But the result is empty?

Does anyone have any thoughts as to where I’m going wrong?
