Bases Filter not working while Sync

What I’m trying to do

I have 2 windows computer that I use during the week and an andriod phone that I sometimes use. I wanted to use Bases to check if I have any files that are linked to the present file in a different (but within the vault) Obsidian folder.

name: Meetings
    - file.inFolder("Meeting")
    - file.hasLink(this.file.link)

What I am finding is that the “this.file.link” seems it doesn’t seem to keep working.

Things I have tried

I have tried deleteing the filter then re-configuring it but if I switch computers I am back to an error that the filter doesn’t work or a list of every file in my vault.

First try this base:

views:
  - type: table
    name: Table
    filters:
      and:
        - file.inFolder("Meeting")
        - file.hasLink(this)

If that still doesn’t do what you expect, then can you explain what you mean by "doesn’t keep working’? When does it work, when does it not work, and what’s it doing wrong when it doesn’t work?
