Azure-devops-docs: Counterpart to startsWith?

[RobinZergiebel]

Hey there,

is there any counterpart to the "startsWith"-parameter?
I would like to execute a task for all non-release-branches.

Kind regards,
Robin

@RobCoPKC Thank you for the question.

Please refer to either contains or endsWith in functions.

What do you mean by counterpart?

[RobinZergiebel]

The counterpart to "eq" would be "ne".
So I'm basically asking if there is a "doesntStartWith"-parameter.

Kind regards,
Robin

Thank you for clarifying. You will need to use not, such as:

not(startsWith('ABCDE', 'AB'))

Works flawlessly.
Thank you very much!
Please close this issue.

Kind regards,

Robin
