Power Automate Configuration List Keeps Returning an Error

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

I am pretty new to Power Automate, so someone will probably know the answer to this so quickly. 

I am building a cloud approval flow where employees submit a request on a list in SharePoint, and based on a choice field in that list, I want it to route to different people for approval.

I scoured the internet and found several things saying to use a configuration list, also built in SharePoint. I built the second list and followed the instructions and built the flow, and I keep getting an error:

"Action 'Get_items' failed"
"The expression "Title eq 'MXC - (Men's Cross Country)'" is not valid. Creating query failed."

In the list where they submit items, the internal column name is Team, and the internal column name in the configuration list is Title. I have single quotes around the value in the filter query line.
