UK date format

[jacktherip]

Hi i am trying to get a flow to look at yesterdays list items.

i have a filter query that is:

Created ge 'addDays(utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd'),-1,'yyyy-MM-dd')'

but i get the error

The expression "Created ge 'addDays(utcNow('yyyy-MM-dd'),-1,'yyyy-MM-dd')'" is not valid. Creating query failed.

I think it is because my date is in the UK format

5/31/2022 4:56 PM

So i tried

Created eq 'addDays(utcNow(),-1,'MM-dd-yyyy')

it just doesnt want to filter.

Thank you for your help

@jacktherip can I check that you are not just typing the expression into the Filter Query field? It must be done from the Expression tab of the dynamic content box and be inside single quotes.

Hi

Thank you

I think it was being caused by this weird way i enabled to do filters causing my issue

it shows as blank but the expression is in there really. as it was blank i was clicking the two arrows and that wasnt working out for me.  back on track now.  thank you
