Get Items - Only get a single (one) column

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 260

Hi Power People

 

I have a SharePoint list with dozens of columns.

 

When using the Get Items action, I want to get this list, but only have ONE column returned called item_code. Chat-GPT failed me (or maybe I failed it?) so hoping one of my fellow meat brains here can help.

 

My AI friend said I should use the following in the Filter Query field...

 

?$select=item_code

 

However, this produces an error..

 

 "The $filter expression "?$select=customer_code" is not valid. Creating query failed."

 

Please help 🙂

    I managed to find another way. Let Get Items return all items, then just use one column further into the flow, lol

    Hi @fnanfne 

     

    You can also limit the columns by creating view in SharePoint and use the same in 'Get items' action as shown below:
