    Hi @frixel2,

     

    It would be possible by using Office Scripts and the Run scripts action:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/scripts/overview/excel

     

    Below is an example.

     

    1. Create an Office Script in the Excel Online File. This should be possible via the Automate tab.

    In this example I am clearing the filter from Column B in my Table1

    function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook)
    {
     let table1 = workbook.getTable("Table1");
     // Clear filter on table table1 column B
     table1.getColumnByName("B")
     .getFilter()
     .clear();
    }

    2. Add Run script action to your flow and run this script for your Excel file

    Thanks for your answer, that keeps me opportunnities.

     

    I have try it with the script so you tells above.

    But this script is not remove the filter option from al fiels, This is a script for clear filter(s).

    is it also possible for deleting the filter?

    Hi @frixel2,

     

    My script was just an example. You should be able to record your specific office script with the action recorder. So, I believe that would be possible.

     

    Have a look at this:
