I'm trying to build a flow that should only fire when "_owningbusinessunit_value eq '12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012'", but i get below error from the "Flow checker".

"Exception parsing _owningbusinessunit_value eq '12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012' submitted for attribute filterexpression of callback registration. Target entity: opportunity. Exception: Microsoft.OData.ODataException: A binary operator with incompatible types was detected. Found operand types 'Edm.Guid' and 'Edm.String' for operator kind 'Equal'."

Trigger setup (sorry about the Danish language)

If I leave out the filtering, and make a Condition action and use "_owningbusinessunit_value" -> is equal to -> "12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012", it works fine.

Is it not possible to do it directly in the Trigger?

P.S. i used a fake GUID in this post, the correct GUID is used in flow.

Hi @Deor

Pls try without enclosing value in single quotes as shown below:

_owningbusinessunit_value eq 588b38d8-8da0-ed11-aad0-000d3a0a7bb6

pls replace the actual guid in the above statement.

If this helps & solves your problem, please remember to give a 👍 and accept my solution as it will help others in the future.

Thanks, I was sure that I've already tried that, but it looks like the history is just slow to update (even using the refresh button), so when I was trying different things, i might have bin to inpatient, and just made a new change.

Happy Easter if you celebrate that 🙂
