EXISTS/NOT_EXISTS filter
In the context of a graph query, the EXISTS filter tests the existence of a relationship with another entity. This is the only filter that is explicitly limited to filtering on an entity located directly under the filtered node. To specify which relation should exist/not exist, the filter has a target key.
You can also pass a parameter to the EXISTS filter. This parameter is used as a secondary filtering element. To query the assets with an attribute of type Description, use the EXISTS filter on the asset with target value Attribute and also the Id of the Description type in the value key of the filter.
The table below lists the possible target values and the expected value type for optional parameters.
