ESM API cannot filter on NULL or dates

Even though you are able to attempt to filter on NULL or a date, it does not work on any endpoint that provides a date field attribute.

ESM API documentation is not always accurate

Issue

When viewing endpoints, the example response may not actually match the response when you use the ‘Try it Out’ button.

Also, some attributes may specify it returns a string but instead it returns an integer. It is recommended to utilize the ‘Try it Out’ button for the API you wish to use as how that API will actually behave.
