Hi,
Syntax error at position 8 in 'Hi / Hello ne 'N/A - Hello''.
in filter query i have - Hi / Hello ne 'N/A - Hello' .. meaning i want to exclude those rows.
It is because of the "/" in my column?
thanks.
no, it is because of the spaces. Encode these.
@lbendlin How can I encode ?
Filter a report using query string parameters in the URL - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
replace each space with _x0020_
@lbendlin need to do for "/" aswell..
but getting an error on
Hi_x0020_x002F_x0020_Hello
_x0020_ is for spaces
so i believe _x002F_ is for "/"
yes, usually "/" is reserved for the separation of table name and column name.
@lbendlin sigh, so should my headers be renamed to exclude the "/" then? this is alot of work.
You are certainly well advised to keep column names simple and free of spaces or special characters.
