When does this happen?

IF Using MetadataFilters with FilterCondition.OR and multiple ExactMatchFilters (especially with same key) returns 'Empty response' instead of applying OR logic.

How others solved it

THEN Replace FilterCondition.OR with 'IN' filter operator if supported, or implement a custom vector store that handles OR conditions for same metadata key. For example, in llama_index, use MetadataFilters with FilterOperator.IN and a list of values (where supported) to achieve OR-like behavior.

# Instead of multiple ExactMatchFilters with OR, try:
from llama_index.vector_stores.types import MetadataFilters, MetadataFilter, FilterOperator
filters = MetadataFilters(filters=[MetadataFilter(key="yob", value=["1983", "No info"], operator=FilterOperator.IN)])
