Feature Request: Add functionality to dynamically change vector store metadata filters

[BennyEV7]

Hi everyone, is there any way to dynamically update the value field of the "Search Metadata Filter" for the Astra DB vector store? Ideally (I think, maybe?) I could add a connector that passes the value(s) to this field.

I'm currently using a prompt that checks the chat input against a list of client names and returns only the client names contained in the chat input. I would like the ability to pass these client names to the metadata filter before the vector search process initiates.

See the attached screenshot for an example of how I'm imagining this would flow.

I'm all ears if there is a better way to filter the vector store results.

I think this is a great idea. I'll speak with the team and get this prioritized. Thanks for the submission!

@jordanrfrazier What is the rationale behind removing this sort of filtering in the more recent versions?
