Power automate SharePoint get items filter query syntax

Here we will see the general syntax of filter query we can use in SharePoint Get items action in Power Automate.

The general syntax for the Filter Query is

columnname operation value

Whereas column names that are used are the internal field names by SharePoint. The internal column name can be found within the column setting in SharePoint.

The operation can be listed below

• Equal to (eq)
• Less than (lt)
• Greater than (gt)
• Greater than or equal to( ge)
• Less than or equal to(le)
• No equal to (ne)

The above operation makes it easy to compare column value with the actual value. And sometimes we need to query multiple fields, so, we can use And or Or operations.

At last, the value is the value that you are comparing with the Field name. Make sure that you will need to use a single quote around a value.
