Solution to do partial matches with the Find Record by Query in Salesforce

I couldn’t find a solution for this, and the only article that referenced this was from 2 years ago and said it’s not possible.  After messing around with this, I figured out a solution.  I was searching for an Account by the (partial) name.  In the WHERE field, put:

 

Name LIKE '%yoursearchstring%'

“yoursearchstring” can be a field pulled from another action.  Note that the single quotes and the percent signs are required for this to work.
