Filter Array comparing dynamic data

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,
I am trying to use Filter array and I have problems when comparing 2 dynamic contents (Subject from Get events(V4) = Subject from trigger).
I always end up with filter outputting empty array.

When I tried comparing Subject from Get events(V4) = "specific text", it works. Filter outputs data.
e.g.

 

@equals(item()?['subject'], 'test')

 



Here is my setup:

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    Thank you for your understanding.

    When the event is deleted (meaning it has disappeared from the calendar), so Trigger can't get its information.

    Hi @Anonymous 

     

    I'm sorry you may not have understood what I meant. 

    What I mean is that When an event is added, updated or deleted (V3) this trigger does not return information such as Subject when the Event is deleted. 

    Of course, when the Event is added and updated, the Subject returns correctly.

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi @v-liwei-msft

    I don't think that your information is correct. 

    Unfortunately, when an event is deleted, when an event is added, updated or deleted (V3) does not return values like subject. 


    I am also using those values as Subject in case "added" and it works there:

    This is by design, but you can create a new idea through the below URL, then ask your colleagues to raise up the votes.
