title: Search for exact term in an Algolia index
body: <p>I want to filter an index by an exact value of an attribute. I wonder what possibilities Algolia offers for that.</p>
  
  <p>Querying an index always results in a search for substrings, that means a search term <code>abc</code> will always match any object which attribute values contain <code>abc</code>.  What I want to achieve is a search for <code>abc</code> that finds only <code>abc</code> as a value of an attribute (in this case I have specific attributes to search in).</p>
  
  <p>One possibility I came up with was tagging, which doesn't seem to be the best way to think of.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit</strong></p>
  
  <p>I think I could also use facet filters.  I thought about the different pros and cons and can't come up with arguments that places either one position above the other.</p>
