Adapted from: Extension talk:Wikibase Client/Lua#Retrieving an ID knowing only a property value?

Is this extension usable on WMF wikis? I'm looking for an in-wiki way to retrieve a QID based on a property value within mediawiki? For example, knowing an author's ORCID number, and returning their QID within mediawiki?

Something like wikibase.getEntityIdForPropertyValue(Property, Value)
Such that wikibase.getEntityIdForPropertyValue(P496,'0000-0002-6779-3151') → Q4693015

Any ideas welcomed!

I'm not sure to understand how this relates to CirrusSearch, could you rephrase your question if you think this applies to CirrusSearch?

Thanks!
