Using an array with where statement
I am trying to pass an array to the where clause, please see example below:
let terms = pack_array('12345', 'ABC123');
ADFPipelineRun
| where ResourceId has_any (terms)
I am aware I can use where statements with 'and' 'or' operators with multiple values, but we could be looking at 100s different values.
Can someone please advise on the best approach?

nicholas888 - assuming you're looking to match full strings, you'll want to use the "in" operator to achieve this. To reuse your example, your query becomes:
let terms = pack_array('12345', 'ABC123'); ADFPipelineRun | where ResourceId in (terms)"has_any", as you have it, would be more the equivalent of Col contains 'term1' OR Col contains 'term2' OR [...]. "In" replaces the contains with ==s.

Evgeny Ternovsky - we tried to match the resource name and not the whole string.
example:
we need a match 39515 only. So IN will not work.
Please advise.
