A binary operator with incompatible types

(2) ShareShare

Posted on by 87

Hi All -

 

I'm building a flow (only my second one!) in which I am using List Rows to return a list of Contacts.  In the List Row Step I am attempting to Filter Rows.   I am filtering on two conditions, one of which is straight forward.  The second is based on a GUID value collected from the Flow trigger.  The error is:

 

"A binary operator with incompatible types was detected. Found operand types 'Microsoft.Dynamics.CRM.XXX' and 'Edm.Guid' for operator kind 'Equal'."


This Flow is a Child Flow which I am calling from another Flow.  In the trigger I am collecting the GUID of the Contacts parent record.

I am assuming this is a type mismatch?  Any suggestions on this error?

 

Thanks!

    Found the solution after some trial an error.  It was all in the field formatting.  I was formatting  as

     

    new_record eq

     

    and it should have been

     

    _new_record_value eq

    Good day,

     

    Does anyone have an idea how I can filter by the status of the row, I want to retrieve only active data on the list row. I tried many trial and error without success.

     

    Kind regards

    Thank you very much. My issue was with a Web API call in javascript. Changed the value in my condition to that of your format and worked just as much.
