Hey All,

Feel like I talk here more than I do to my own family lately! But hopefully my last question for at least a week 🙂

I have a collection, as shown below

I want to take only the RatingTitle when RatingScore is equal to "1" or "2" (or 1 or 2 - I am using a global choice if that changes anything"

At the moment I'm using the following, but get an "expected text value" error and don't understand why.

Filter(col_combined, RatingScore = "1" || RatingScore = "2").RatingTitle

I have also tried doing it the followign way, but promptly gave up when ChatGPT bullied me for it

If(
 Or(
 ThisItem.RatingScore = 1,
 ThisItem.RatingScore = 2
 ),
 ThisItem.RatingTitle,
)

Any advice or pointers is greatly appreciated, I feel like I'm being dense and missing something obvious here

Hi

You don't need to compare it to text values ("1" or "2"). Instead, you can directly compare it to numeric values.

Filter(col_combined, RatingScore = 1 || RatingScore = 2).RatingTitle

Thanks!

I've tried that already actually, that's why I had the quotes - I should've mentioned that sorry 😅 without the quotes I get a blue underline under the equals signs that says "Incompatible types for comparison. These types can't be compared: Text, Number." as well as a red underline under the .RatingTitle that says "Expected Text value."

I've tried adding .Text and .Value to the end to no avail

Sounds like RatingScore returns Text, so try Value(RatingScore) = 1

.RatingTitle is missing now.

I rebuild it. Both working, so transformation with Value() is not necessary.
Filter(col_combined, Value(RatingScore) = 1 || RatingScore = 2).RatingTitle

I have 4 pages with ClearCollects that are the same as this one. They just create a collection for that page:

Then on the page that comes right before the one I am currently working on for the filter I have the following ClearCollect which combines the previous 4 into one large collection.

The output works, there's an example of it in the initial post - but I did mention that I use a global choice, so the dropboxes you see all use "Choices('Site Inspection Rating')". Could that have something to do with it?

I had tried it both with and without it - blue underline under the equals signs that says "Incompatible types for comparison. These types can't be compared: Text, Number." as well as a red underline under the .RatingTitle that says "Expected Text value."

I just change your version there so that it is
Filter(col_combined, Value(RatingScore) = 1 || Value(RatingScore) = 2).RatingTitle
Now I just have the red underline for the expected text value
