Hi Marie, when you look at the diagram view of the sh:values rule you will note that something is missing:
 The sh:minus is ignored because it "competes" with the sh:filterShape for the sh:nodes input. There is one level of nesting missing, as you have sh:filterShape and sh:minus on the same level. I believe one solution might be: sh:values [ sh:minus [ sh:path ex:characteristics ; ] ; sh:nodes [ sh:distinct [ sh:filterShape [ sh:or ( [ sh:class ex:Food ; ] [ sh:class ex:SkeletalStructure ; ] ) ; ] ; sh:nodes [ sh:path ( skos:broader ex:characteristics ) ; ] ; ] ; ] ; ] ; which visualizes as  HTH Holger > On 26 Apr 2024, at 6:42 PM, Marie Valadez <mevalade...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello! > > I am trying to use infer values through sh:values using sh:nodes, > sh:filterShape, sh:minus. > However, it is not working as intended.
