    Hello, @cheers1903 

     

    If your SharePoint column is ‘Date Only’, you should use date without time in the filter too. Since SharePoint will provide dates in ISO 8601 format, use the same format also for the ‘Value’. For date only column it means the format year-month-day: ‘yyyy-MM-dd’.

     

    Consider the following example:

    Happy Automating,

    Unfortunately your filter query will not work properly unless the date you provide is formatted as yyyy-MM-dd as that is how SharePoint stores dates internally regardless of your regional settings.

    i changed the format of the date to ddmmyyy as we do not show it the other way around.  In the HTML table is put the formate date to 

    formatDateTime(item()?['ExpiryDate'],'dd/MM/yyyy')

    SharePoint expects that all dates will be formatted as yyyy-MM-dd

    You can use an expression in your filter query to format the date:

    formatDateTime(YourDate,'yyyy-MM-dd')
