Apostrophe removed through replace but no records returned

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 36

I've created a flow that grabs the address from a sharepoint list off an entry. The address sometimes has an apostrophe in it and that causes the filter query to fail. If I replace the characters to solve the apostrophe issue, then the filter query does not return any records.

 

For example ->
Initial Address Variable: 244 O'Briens Rd
EscapedAddress Variable (used in Filter Query): 244 O Briens Rd

There is no record within my sharepoint list with the address 244 O Briens Rd, so no records are returned. How is this solved?

    Hi @WCEDsystems ,

     

    Please use ’‘ for the character ’
