Currently, passing filter selections from DV to Classic requires URL Navigation, Request Variables, and manually maintained parameter mappings.
While this approach works for simple scenarios, it introduces several limitations:
- Filters fail to pass correctly when intermediate hierarchy levels are not selected.
- Multi-word values can be incorrectly interpreted during URL conversion.
- Complex hierarchies require lengthy and difficult-to-maintain URLs.
- Browser URL length restrictions limit scalability.
- Users experience inconsistent behavior between DV and Classic experiences.
Requested Enhancement:
Provide a native mechanism to pass filter context from DV Workbooks to Classic Dashboards and Analyses without requiring URL-based parameter construction.
Desired Capabilities:
- Automatic Filter Context Transfer
- Transfer all active workbook filters to the target Classic Dashboard.
- Preserve hierarchy selections regardless of which levels are selected.
- Hierarchy-Aware Navigation
- Allow users to select lower-level hierarchy members without requiring parent-level selections.
- Native Multi-Value and Multi-Word Support
- Correctly transfer values containing spaces or special characters.
- Support multi-select filters without URL encoding limitations.
- Eliminate URL Dependency
- Avoid browser URL length limitations.
