Searching using a custom string attribute on sc_cat_item

[Sanjay Rallapal]

Hello all

How does one go about enabling search on a custom attribute added to the sc_cat_item table?

I have a custom attribute u_lob_head, String and I have specified an index. However, when I execute
a GET using the REST API explorer in the form

https://XXX.service-now.com/api/now/table/sc_cat_item?sysparm_query=u_lob_head=bob.rodgers

The search condition is ignored.
