How to oData filter a Choice Column with Multiple Selection

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 21

I have a flow that filters a list of items in a sharepoint list. It does not filter the data even if I can still see items that has the condition within the list. Upon checking the sample run of the flow, the oData filter did not result to anything.

 

OrderStatus column is a "Choice" field that allows multiple selection

Would appreciate the help regarding this one. Thanks!

In the list I still have items that are tagged as "Released"

    Change the odata filter to

    substringof('Released', OrderStatus)

    Hello! Apologies for the delayed response I got covid T_T. Anyway, it seems it's not working on my list. I am not sure if the number of items in the list is affecting the performance because it is already over 33,000 items.

    Hi,

    Have you turned on the pagination of the get items?

    Not yet. Should I set it to just 5000?

    Now I am able to filter items, but I need to archive! Thank you!

    The maximum that I can set is 5000 (license limitation), I suggest using the maximum that your license permits
