Understanding View Criteria Item Operators

When building view criteria filters for use in a web service call, the following table provides the list of valid values that you can provide as an operator in a view criteria item.

Notice that some operators are valid only for fields of certain data types. For example, for a field {Priority of type number, you can use the >= operator, but in contrast, for a view criteria item related to a ResolutionDate field of type Date, you would use the ONORAFTER operator.
