Hi there, 
 
I have an issue with Send an email (V2). 
 
It seems that there is an issue with a dynamic filter for date as static date is working and email is being sent. 
However, I don't understand the problem as I have already checked with Chat GPT, if its set correctly. 
I have an excel table on one drive - > file selected -> table selected -> Filter Query -> Month2 eq ' formatDateTime(utcNow(), 'MMMM') ' -> referring to column I need data from. This should be the current month. 
My time zone is Central Europe.
 
With the static date "August" I get the email sent, but with this formula not sure what is wrong. 
 
Please advise. 

Thanks.

    Hi, 
     
    Remove the blank spaces between the apostrophes and the expression.


     
    Hope this helps. 
    Anthony.

    Thank you Anthony! I have spent hours on this, wondering what the issue is and it is such a banality! Thanks again! :)
