Quick Question: When matching for a single row (not selecting multiple match) in a relation where there are multiple matchable rows - which row is returned? For example: Would a Relation Match “Rank = First” consistently return Row ID 1 and “Rank = Second” return Row ID 2 and NOT match Row ID 3 and 4 respectively? Thanks Row ID - Rank - Letter 1 - First - A 2 - Second - A 3 - First - B 4 - Second - B ---

A single relation will always return the first matching row. ---

Thanks Darren - I assume same results within filters in a Screen / Tab? If MyTerritory matches multiple territories it will return the first one in the table. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/8/e864ea2a8da57f61e1071498db8b1d863f9831b9.png) ---

You mean a filter at the screen level? Then yes, you’ll get the first matching row. A filter on a collection, of course, will return _all_ matching rows. ---
