Get Items: The expression is not valid when filter value starts with 0

[Lym]

Hi Experts,

I have List 1 and List 2 in SharePoint. Both have the same columns and one of the column is Vendor Number which is the default title column.

My flow runs when an item in List 1 is created. The flow checks if the Vendor Number exists in List 2, if it does it updates it otherwise flow creates it in List 2 then delete the List 1 item.

It works as expected but the issue is when the Vendor Number starts with 0, it throws the below error.

Below is the Get item

I have tried Title eq VendorNumber and Title eq String(VendorNumber) but it still throws an error.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you.

Hi @Lym ,

Could you please take a try to add a single quote to the string as below:

@v-alzhan-msft thank you so much. That fixed the issue. But I don't get it. The source column is the out of the box Title and the target column is also the out of the box Title on another list, both are Text field. Why it was not working without adding ' ' ?
