User Input Filter on Number Column

So I have been trying to make anything remotely close to this example work https://www.appsheet.com/samples/dynamic-slice?appGuidString=91266cff-e843-46b8-a42b-3d85afedb37f and I just cannot seem to accomplish it.

My ultimate goal is to have a user input form on multiple columns in order to filter out any rows of data that meet the criteria. My data table is based off a MySQL datasource table name is PermitList and at least one of my columns I wish to filter based on user provided input is called Permit_No. Transitioning from App Maker in that environment I was able to just drag an input element into my canvas and set the value of the input to table.filter.ColumnName._equals for example. I am hoping to replicate something similar in AppSheet where I have an input where the user could type in ‘200’ for example and it would filter all rows where the Permit_No column matches that value.

Given that I was not able to even replicate the above sample app I am at a huge loss here. I suppose one might say I possibly lack some of the basic concepts in AppSheet, but I have found that filtering does not appear to be as straight forward as it was on the platform I am migrating from. Any help would be appreciated.
