Hi, I have a SharePoint list that has a few date columns. They are Actions that are assigned to certain people. I am building a workflow to send a reminder to the assigned person 3 days before the action columns are due. I built some parallel Get Items actions each filtering the Query for the action column I am focusing on. All the queries (get items action 2, 3, and 4 work fine), however the get items action1 doesn't. It gives me an error message saying that the 'Column name doesn't exist. It may be deleted by another user'. All queries were built the same. and I checked the name and it seems to be the correct one... Anyone has any ideas why this one is failing? I am thinking it is because it starts with an underscore?
If the internal name starts with an underscore character (e.g. _MyColumn), then it should be shown as "OData__MyColumn" (with the letter O, not zero, and two underscores next to each other).
Hi @Expiscornovus,
I have the same issue but adding 0Data_ did not work. Is there any other ways to fix? Thanks!
Brilliant! Thank you! Learning everyday!
Hi @SCMSAC,
Yes, that is correct. The leading underscore will be the cause.
That name will probably start with Odata_ instead of the leading underscore.
Try and replace that leading underscore by Odata_ like suggested by @ekarim2020 in his blog post about internal names:
In your case try:
