Add Get items for upcoming renewals

Theo's daily renewal sweep at Drumlin Advisory wakes up at 8 AM but isn't doing anything yet. The first action: ask SharePoint for the contracts that need attention - Status is Active and EndDate falls within the next 60 days.

The right pattern is to filter at the source. Get items with a Filter Query runs the OData expression on SharePoint and returns only the rows that match. The alternative - fetch every row and filter inside the flow - pulls the entire list over the wire and discards most of it. Same result, vastly more cost.

If the flow designer looks broken (no triggers or actions appear in the search list, or you see an error mentioning invalid host name characters), click Restart session, then reload the exercise.
