LDAP/Active Directory search excluding sAMAccountName with spaces

I am integrating with 3rd party LDAP where some sAMAccountName contains spaces e.g sAMAccountName=Ishan Liyanage

Is there any possibility that I can exclude sAMAccountName with spaces while searching?

I know I can use logical not to exclude those, but it not an option as there so many with spaces

Well you can add the logical negation of spaces using an additional search term like:

!(sAMAccountName=* *)

but, TBH, why such a restriction - is it for linux interop? If that's the case then you can use the uid field or the prefix of the principal name: userPrincipalName=<user>@*
