URL Filter

Has anyone noticed that the URL filter function no longer works?

I just tested it on my side and it worked all fine for me. Could you go and check the URL format and try it again?:smileyhappy:
URL = reportURL + ?filter=table/column eq 'value'
Note: The column must be of type string and neither the table name nor the column name can contain spaces.

Regards

I have never heard of URL filter function. Can you please post the function, its syntax and how it works.

    Ohh.. This is called passing of a parameters to the Web.contents function in Query editor. It is still supported and This is now more powerful as you can pass the list of values, Query and/or single value to this.
