Filter Data Table Action Challenge

Posted on by Vishnu Maddala 11
Hi Everyone,

When we are trying to use the Filter Data table action to filter the values, it's not giving accurate results, ex: when giving value greater than 5, if the list containing numeric beyond 10, then it is not showing those results.

    Have you made sure that all those values are numeric type? I think the numbers might actually be string values. Use Set variable action and take the one of those values from your data table and see if the type is Text or Numerical.

    I had a similar problem where I tried to sort table which had rows that had row numbers in tens so row 1 had value 10, row 2 had value 20 ... row 10 had value 100, row 11 had value 110 etc.
    And when I tried to sort that it sorted it in this order: 10, 100, 110, 20 When I would have wanted to sort it from smallest number to largest so 10, 20, 30 ... 100, 110 etc.
    I had to change the values to be number types.
