I wonder why above does not evaluate to TRUE. I cannot also match using StartsWith.

 

 

I can however match using Regex.

Hi @erikasuzuki,

 

That is because the field should be the 1st parameter and the pattern 2nd parameter. That is CONTAINS([Value], 'Subject Property').

 

Hope this helps.

 

Cheers,

Lelia

Thank you, indeed I have reversed the order of the parameter. It is clear to me now which one is the needle and the haystack.
