1. I am using getitems to retrive the value from a Sharepoint List with a column 1 with Single code value.
2. When i am using column 1 in the filter query , flow is getting failed where ever column values are having data with single code.
Example : Column name is Company. Values are follows
1. Company Test 1
2. Company 'Test 2'
3. Company Test 3
Flow is getting failed while retriving value for Company 'Test 2'.
Kindly help here,
Thanks Sanmesh for the quick reply and solution , it is working fine.
Hi @RamKan2021 ,
If you are trying to create an OData filter query with single quotes in your dynamic content , then try replacing the single quotes in the expression with another single quotes which will eventually create an escape sequence for the content in single quotes.
Adding the screenshot and the expression for your reference ,

Hope this helps , do give this a thumbs up and mark this response as a solution if this answers your question.

@RamKan2021 Can you share a screenshot of your flow? It's hard to offer any recommendations without seeing the error. If you are using the new designer, toggle it off and click each action to expand it. Upload a screenshot of your flow in edit mode and the error you are receiving, it would help to provide more insight.
Also, is your flow actually failing? If so, what is the error. Or is the Get Items action just not returning any results.
You will need to use the internal column name of the column you are using in your filter query field. Keep in mind that the internal column name may not always match the name displayed in your Sharepoint list. If you aren't sure how to get the Internal Column name, you can refer to this section of one of my YT Tutorials.
