API wildcard?

What I want is to do something like this to return all users with a specific email domain .  Obviously this * doesn't work, but it gives you the idea of what I'm looking for.   Is there a way to do this with an API call?  Some kind of wildcard?

    Unfortunately, no such API. But you can get it done with some customisations after fetching all the community users.

      Thanks.  Too bad.  I can get it from the user reports and filter a spreadsheet, but that's much more of a hassle.  I was hoping for an api solution. :-(

        Yeah, an API v2 / LiQL like operator would have been helpful many times and would be for this as well... something in the likes of:

        SELECT id FROM users WHERE email LIKE '%@emaildomain.tld'

        unfortunately it does not look like we get something like that in the near future... maybe DougS or RahulHa could reason for or against such functionality in the API?
