OData not operator, or how to filter for all items which not

Question

Hi,

OData not operator, or how filter for all items which not startswith(....)

 

I am using the SharePoint REST API, which is similar to OData, but currently I don't even know the standard OData way. I would like to filter items that do not start with a certain string pattern. How is the 'not' operator written in OData? All references list 'and' and 'or' operators and 'ne' operators, but I cannot find one for 'not'.

 

can anyone help. 

 

Bests,
