brackets in an OData URL

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I'm trying to get data from an oData URL.  There is a huge amount of data, so i want to filter on specific column in my request.

The problem is that my column name contain brackets "ShortcutDimCode[4]".

This is my url :

http://xxxxxxxxxx.com:7088/xxxxxxxxx/OData/DEVIS_ACHATSPurchLines?$filter= ShortcutDimCode[4] eq 'xxxx'

Is it possible to filter with a column name that contain brackets ?

Thanks for your help

Hi @Anonymous , 

It seems that you have specific charater in column name, you could try to use x005B_Column_x005D to see wether it work or not. In addition, it seems that your value also have "[", "]", right? You could remove it or use above suggestions to see whether it work or not.

You could refer to Filter a report using query string parameters in the URL  for details.

Best Regards,
Zoe Zhi
