Bases: Querying files with a tag as exactly as it is

What I’m trying to do

Hello! I am trying to make a .base file which queries files only with a singular clippings tag underneath them. However, it somehow never works and I don’t know why.

Things I have tried

That’s all I’ve tried.

Can you share more information?

What information do you need?

the property I’m trying to filter is file.tags == clippings but it’s just not working. I’m trying to get everything that just has that specific tag but nothing is appearing on my end.

file.hasTag("clippings") && file.tags.length == 1

Hi! Thanks for replying. This unfortunately does not solve my issue as I only need files which only have the tag clippings. Unfortunately, this solution queries every file that has that tag along with other tags, e.g. clippings, meeting-notes get included when I don’t need that.

It’s meant to do what you’re asking. Can you show the base you used with that filter and an example of a note it returned that had more than one tag?

can you check the length of the tags list? you’re looking for just 1 item, right?

Sorry, I messed up the syntax on my end. The filter you suggested worked exactly the way I wanted to.

I’m so sorry for the confusion, and thank you for the help.
