Search sources list by source name

[hbd]

Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve

The /api/v1/sources/list endpoint works great, but is an inefficient way to find a source if you're searching for sources(s) with specific name(s). Currently, there is not a way to search for a source by name.

The feature is a nice-to-have to prevent clients from needing to iterate through the whole list of sources to find a source or group of sources.

Describe the solution you’d like

We could use something like:

/api/v1/sources/list?name=myName

or even use a contains:

/api/v1/sources/list?nameContains=myName

Which would return a list of sources the specified name or containing the name. This would reduce the client workload, because they'd no longer need to iterate through the whole list of sources.

Describe the alternative you’ve considered or used

Currently, I'm looping through the whole list to find a source by name.
