Modern Team Sites - Highlighted Content filter not work

I've set up the Highlighted Content web part to filter using a managed property. When I've got the web part opened on the Modern page, it correctly only shows 3 files. But as soon as I save and close the page the filter isn't applied. When I edit the web part, my filters are there and only 3 files show so I know it is saving properly. What could it be? Yes, I have published the page.

Julie Sanders - is it you that sees different results when you say... "But as soon as I save and close the page the filter isn't applied." or someone else?

Did you originally add the webpart to the page or someone else (e.g. your admin)?

Does filtering work on other pages/instances of the webpart (e.g. is it only broken for this page/instance)?

Trying to understand more about the symptoms to figure out what's oging on.

Thanks,

John

  It works if I use "Begins with" versus "Equal To". So maybe my "save the page" complaint wasn't the issue.

    Ok. Thanks. Julie - Which field are you trying this with (title, author, etc) where Begins with works and equal to doesn't?
