filter option for web api power M query

Hello experts

I am trying to convert my dynamic query to relative path so that it can refreshed automatically.

Old url : 

Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("weburl& "incidents?$" & "filter=ticketnumber eq " & CaseNumber))

New url i am trying

Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("weburl", [RelativePath = "api/data/v9.2/incidents?", Query = "$filter=ticketnumber eq CaseNumber"])),

Problem Statement: Old Url is exactly giving me single record which is expected. The new url i am trying is working but its giving me 999+ records which i dont want. 

CaseNumber is parameter I am using.

Thanks in advance for help.

    How about changing the way you reference the Case Number:

    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("weburl", [RelativePath = "api/data/v9.2/incidents", Query = "$filter=ticketnumber eq " & CaseNumber]))

    or the other option include everything in the relative path

    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("weburl", [RelativePath = "api/data/v9.2/incidents?$filter=ticketnumber eq " & CaseNumber]))

    Hi gomandy99 - I think the "?" is unnecessary.  Can you please try removing it?

    Source = Json.Document(Web.Contents("weburl", [RelativePath = "api/data/v9.2/incidents", Query = "$filter=ticketnumber eq CaseNumber"]))
