Hi,

I have this flow that takes the form response data to pull the target and stretch goals for the metric selected from the 23-24 Scorecard Metric table and create a row in the 23-24 Scorecard Data table.

I am having an issue with the data pull from the 23-24 Scorecard Metric table, I keep getting this error: "Syntax error at position 9 in 'Number of Labor Hours Saved'."

Hi,
I have tried the filter query listed in the article but I am still getting the Syntax error message. Any advice for applying it to a MS form data?

Syntax error at position 10 in 'contains ('Metric', 'Number of Labor Hours Saved')'.

First of all, you need to remove the space character after contains.
Secondly, you don't need a single quote for the column name (the first parameter of the contains function)
And the column name should be the logical name instead of the display name.
Here is the sample filter rows parameter and please replace xyz_meterics with the actual logical name of your column.

contains(xyz_metrics, '«MIS Metrics»')

I recommend using the FetchXML Builder tool to build the filter query if you are not familiar with the filter operators. Here are a couple of blog posts from the community on how to use the tool to generate the filter rows parameter.
