Filter mixed conditions

[lmheimendinger]

I am pulling my hair out over what seems so simple, but what I am doing wrong evades me.

I need several different Filter() commands work.  The datasource is a SharePoint list, and a handful of columns are all Yes/No fields; let's call them A, B and C.  

If I want to Filter() on all records for A and C, then this works:

Filter(datasource,A=true, C=false)   although I expected Filter(datasource,A=true And C=false) to work but I get ALL the records in that case.

But here's what I also need:

Filter(datasource, (A=true Or B=true) And C=false)  or various true/false combinations.  In other words, how do I combine the Or and the And expressions?  I have tried things like Filter(datasource,(A=true Or B=true), C=false) and A=true And C=false Or B=true but nope.

I have reviewed the documentation for Filter as well as reading through gobs of posts, and the Or or And expressions are reported to work.  I was tickled when I tried just two conditions separated by a comma, but I haven't been able to extend that to three conditions, two And and one Or.

I am sure I will have a callous on my palm and a flat forehead when this is solved, as I slap my hand against my head: "I should have thought of that!"

Thanks in advance

Are you using yes/no complex column in sharepoint? If so instead of check true check 1.

Filter( datasource, and(A=1,C=0)).

Hi @lmheimendinger,

For and/or you need to bracket the "pairs" and also you do not need the true or false 

Filter(
   DataSource,
   A && (!B || C)
)

means A is true and either B is false or C is true, whereas this 

Filter(
   DataSource,
   (!A && B) || C
)

 means EITHER BOTH A is false AND B is true OR C is true.

That worked!  Thanks.  I learned a few things:

1.  I initially just used the column name, no =true/false but because that wasn't giving me the desired result, I ended up using the =.
2. I I had the grouping right as well as the logic, but the expressions didn't work out.

Now all is well in my apps world.
