While Queryable Encryption equality and range queries are fully supported in production, prefix, suffix, and substring queries are only available in public preview in MongoDB 8.2. Do not enable these query types in production. GA functionality of prefix, suffix and substring query types will be incompatible with the preview feature.
This page summarizes the tasks required to set up your MongoDB deployment and your development environment for Queryable Encryption.
