lastIndexOf doesnt work

[Saikumar]

Reference,

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/logic-apps/workflow-definition-language-functions-reference#l...

lastIndexOf('hello world', 'world')

I have been trying this expression, and it returns 6 instead of 10.

Can you please have this fixed?

To test this, I am simply initializing a variable with this expression, and it doesnt work!

Thank you.

Hi @Saikumar,

Thanks for your feedback. I can reproduce this issue on my side. It seems that functions indexof and lastindexof return the same value. While lastindexof should return the ending position of a string.

I will help report this issue on my side and back to you later.

Best regards,

Mabel Mao

Any news on this, it is still not working!

Hi @Naireb 

This is expected. Please see the descrption from the doc link you provided:

"Return the starting position or index value for the last occurrence of a substring."

For example,

lastIndexOf('hello world world', 'world')

Should be 12.

@v-yamao-msft  FYI.

Thanks,

Vincent

Im trying this some 2 years later:

lastIndexOf(variables('FullLibraryURL'),'/'')

but this is not working, 'the expression is invalid'  but it seems valid if im not mistaken.

I noticed i had 1x ' too many in the end.
