(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 240

Hi Folks,

PFB, Attached is the screenshot!

 

I am trying to match string in A2 with B2 and find the matching confidence score in column C2. How can we perform this scenario in cloud flow?

    Hi @abm so there are two columns in the excel sheet right, for eg. I have to compare "(GMT+12:00) Fiji Time (Pacific/Fiji)" with "(GMT+12:00) Fiji Time (Fiji)" in both the strings, there is a difference of word Pacific, so I need to calculate how much percent it matched

    Examples are below:

    (GMT+03:00) Israel Daylight Time  (Asia/Jerusalem)(GMT+03:00) Israel Daylight Time (Asia/Jerusalem)98

    (GMT+05:30) India Standard Time  (Asia/Calcutta)(GMT+05:30) India Standard Time (Asia/Calcutta)97.92

    (GMT+08:00) Hong Kong Time  (Asia/Hong_Kong)(GMT+08:00) Hong Kong Time (Asia/Hong_Kong)97.73

    (GMT+08:00) Hong Kong Time  (Asia/Hong_Kong)(GMT+08:00) Hong Kong Time (Asia/Hong_Kong)97.73

    (GMT+12:00) Fiji Time  (Pacific/Fiji)(GMT+12:00) Fiji Time (Fiji)75.68

    (GMT+12:00) Fiji Time  (Pacific/Fiji)(GMT+12:00) Fiji Time (Fiji)75.68

    (GMT+12:00) Fiji Time  (Pacific/Fiji)(GMT+12:00) Fiji Time (Fiji)75.68

    (GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time  (America/Denver)(GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time (Denver)82.69

    (GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time  (America/Denver)(GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time (Denver)82.69

    (GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time  (America/Denver)(GMT-06:00) Mountain Daylight Time (Denver)82.69

    (GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time  (America/Tijuana)(GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time (America/Tijuana)98.08

    (GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time  (America/Tijuana)(GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time (America/Tijuana)98.08

    (GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time  (America/Tijuana)(GMT-07:00) Pacific Daylight Time (America/Tijuana)98.08

    Hi @PowerUser0 

     

    Thanks for the discussion. So here are the options:

     

    1. Use the flow length and substring expressions to do a comparison but it will be very slow for the overall execution.

    2. You could utilise C# or some other language to host an Azure function and call from flow using HTTP.

    3. Have a look on the AI builder.

     

    Thanks
