WAPI global search for the shortened IPv6 addresses

[#1]

I'm trying to search for IPv6 shortened addresses using Infoblox WAPI (Perl REST client).

If I enter the full address: 4a0b:2900:115e:82d:16:0:52:1 search is successful. But in the shortened format: 4a0b:2900:115e:82d:16::52:1 not:

my $string = '4a0b:2900:115e:82d:16::52:1';
my $params = $rest->buildQuery( 'search_string:~' => $string );
$rest->GET( "/search".$params , $headers01 );
