    const filter = createFilter(req.query.$filter);
    // connection instance from mysql module
    connection.query(`SELECT * FROM Users WHERE ${filter.where}`, filter.parameters, function(err, data){
        res.json({
        	'@odata.context': req.protocol + '://' + req.get('host') + '/api/$metadata#Users',
