Hi @Paridhi_Agrawal 

 

Your workflow is not working properly because when you use the list box, the data that comes out of the update value tool looks like this:

So, you need to deal with this data before filtering the main dataset. Check the attached workflow, i basically turned the above dataset in one can be joined against the main dataset.

hi, 

How did you see the values coming from update value tool (Action tool)?

@Paridhi_Agrawal one trick to do this is by updating a text input file, writting the result of it to an output, make this output open after running the app and finally run the app:
