Posted on by Kratos1 12

Hi,

I am doing a get request and the search function is working however the filter function is not working/being ignored and there's no errors and its bring up all the results without the filter being applied.

Is anyone able to just advise why the filter is being ignored.
Any help would be much appreciated

    Hi @Kratos1 

     

    that is because you didn't type the filter details as an expression, you just typed in the expression as text. Use the expression tab to type the Filter part so it shows up as a pink 🙂 expression

     

    Just like you have that Search Text on top, you need an expression bubble/box


    If I have helped you, I would really appreciate if you please Mark my answer as Resolved/Answered, and give it a thumbs up, so it can help others

    Cheers

    Thank You

    Hi @FLMike,

    Thanks for responding, I have tried putting the filter details as an expression, however its stating that the expression is invalid.

    at the moment I am trying one filter which is "substringof('000 - CPP',FileRef)" however I will be including a few more or filters to go with it ie "substringof('Fodler 1',FileRef) or substringof('Folder 6',FileRef)" etc

    Any further help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks
