Change in taxonNameSuggestion search behaviour #11

Open ianengelbrecht opened 2 weeks ago

My apologies, I feel like I'm bombarding you with issues here.

It appears that the behaviour of the taxonNameSuggestion GraphQL query has changed. A few weeks ago, during a data capture project, we were sending partial name strings with two or more parts with wildcard characters, and the API was returning results as expected. Now it doesn't seem to work anymore.

This works:

query { taxonNameSuggestion(termsString: "welw*") { fullNameStringPlain, id, role, } }

But this doesn't (returns an empty array):

query { taxonNameSuggestion(termsString: "welw* mir") { fullNameStringPlain, id, role, } }

Probably 6-8 weeks ago it was working as described above
