Filter a sharepoint list where Column1 is true

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by WebPortal 2,295

I want to filter a sharepoint list where Column1 is true and get a table with only Check_ID column:

 

Filter(List, Column1= true).Check_ID

 

But this is returning the false records.

 

And:

 

Filter(List, Column1= false).Check_ID

 

Also returns the false records.

 

My SP list Column1 contains both true and false values.

    @WebPortal 

    First - is this a Yes/No column in your list?

    Second, there has been a LOOONG known bug in PowerApps regarding Yes/No columns and filtering.

    However, you should be able to get the first formula to work.  Set it to: Filter(List, Column1).Check_ID and it should be the true values returned.  You cannot do the second filter in PowerApps currently.

     

    I hope this is helpful for you.

    Yes, it is a Yes/No column

     

    The trues are retrieved correctly with:

     

    Filter(List, Text(Column1) = "true").Check_ID

     

    And also with your formula!

     

    I can't believe this is a bug, it is a HUGE one!

    It's easily worked around, so it hasn't gotten a lot of attention to resolve.

    AND...one thing you learn early on is to just avoid the Yes/No columns all together and use a numeric column instead.  Plus it gives you tri-state easier. i.e.  0 - not set, 1 - false, 2 - true.  AND it is completely delegable.
