Hi. I have a Google Drive folder with dozens of files, all named in a format similar to B# - #.#.pdf, e.g. B15 - 3.1.pdf.

 

The problem is, this doesn’t return the exact file but one that looks like it, e.g. B51 - 1.3.pdf.

 

I tried this also using the ‘find file’ action in Onedrive with the same problem.

 

This makes it hugely problematic to use the ‘find file’ action and has broken my workflow for now. 

 

I saw that this was a bug reported a couple of years ago in previous community posts, so quite surprised it hasn’t been resolved yet: 

 

Does anyone have any advice on this? Thanks in advance.

Hi @MJ_IATC 

You may have to explore using the GDrive API for more control for exact matches via one of these action options.
