hey community, quick question. I'm currently using typesense / instant search to power an experience that allows users to search through film archives and it works great. my client wants the ability to have a second search field, however, that would allow the user to specifically filter on a single parameter (the numerical ID of an individual film record).

Does anyone here know if that's achievable via the instant search adapter or has built a similar functionality? can't seem to find that use case addressed in the docs
