Search in Zapier Table returns results while same search using table step in Zap does not

I'm trying to implement search logic using a table step, which returns no matches. But when I run this search directly in the table I get a match (expected result). This makes me think my logic is correct, and there is something wrong with the table zap step…

Any help would be appreciated!

Hey ​@LindenJ 👋

I see you reached out to our Support team and they were able to help get it sorted. I’ll share the key details from their reply here in case it’s helpful for others running into similar issues:

It appears that the lookup fields selected might have changed, which is why it isn't working in the Zap.
 
To troubleshoot this, could you please try re-selecting the fields in the Zapier Tables step as shown in the short GIF below and re-test the step:

As that seems to have solved things I’ll mark this as the best answer, but do feel free to reach back out if you need help with anything else. In the meantime, happy Zapping! 😁⚡
