Filtering

At a glance

The community member asks if it is possible to filter with a vector store index after indexing, so that a user can select a value and only receive documents/nodes with that value in the metadata. The comments indicate that this is possible, with one community member providing an example using Qdrant and noting that nearly every vector store supports equality filters, and some also support more advanced operations. Another community member confirms that this is still possible even when using an unstored vector store index.

Nearly every vector store will support == type filters. The more popular ones will also support more operations
