Filter on custom parameter

Unfortunately custom fields are only "dumb storage". That means that custom fields can not be filtered or sorted. While we do want to introduce that as a feature at some point, we don't know when we will introduce this.

Today we rolled out an update that allows for filtering by custom parameter.

Great!
Do I need to update php library?
Because it's not working for me...

My url looks something like this:

http://api.bitsontherun.com/v1/videos/list?direction=asc&order_by=date%253Adesc&result_limit=10&cust...

Before i used the author parameter so it looked like this:

http://api.bitsontherun.com/v1/videos/list?direction=asc&order_by=date%253Adesc&result_limit=10&auth...

That was working fine, or am I missing something here??

The API kit has not changed, but I see that in your querystring, you are not using the search: operator as is mentioned in the docs.

Thanx for the quick response!
You're right. I did custom.user_id = 79 where I should have done search:custom.user_id = 79.Now it works.

Is it possible to only return videos where there is an exact match?
Because if there's a video with user_id = 799 it will also retun that one..

Or is this where tags are for..
