RLIKE [esql-rlike]

:::{image} ../../../images/operators/rlike.svg :alt: Embedded :class: text-center :::

Use RLIKE to filter data based on string patterns using regular expressions. RLIKE usually acts on a field placed on the left-hand side of the operator, but it can also act on a constant (literal) expression. The right-hand side of the operator represents the pattern.
