Filter array question

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 6

Hi Guys

 

I am new with PA and working on a flow and here is the idea:

 

1. Retrieve data from Excel spreadsheet

2. Select certain record based on criteria by Filter array function, in this case: Case Number = 1

3. Fill out Word template with corresponding data

4. Convert the Word file to PDF and send it out as an attachment

However, when I test the flow, the Filter array function does not seems to work properly (no output)

Can anyone throw me an idea that could make things happen?

 

Thanks

    Hi @ywies-gz ,

     

    Do you have more than 1 filtering condition? or it is just one condition?

    Hi @ywies-gz 

     

    Can you check if there is any whitespace after '1' in the condition for filter array? 

     

    Hope this Helps!

    I am pretty sure there is no space after "1"

    Just 1 condition for the time being. Maybe I will add more once I get familiar with Filter array.

    Can you try to use the Filter Query on the List  Items Excel Action as below
