ForAnyValue:StringLike

ForAnyValue:StringLike

compares a list of strings in a request to a list of strings in your policy. The policy values can include asterisks (*) to match multiple characters and question marks (?) to match a single character. The comparison is case sensitive.

To match a request, the context key must exist in the request and at least one string in the request must match one of the strings in your policy.

You can use policy variables in the value of this operator.
