Show More / Less Filters

Introduction

This post will present how to divide your dashboard filters to more and less important filter groups

Example

Steps

Step 1 - Download and extract the enclosed folder in the plugins folder:

C:\Program Files\Sisense\PrismWeb\plugins\dashFiltersPlugin, if the "plugins" folder is not there, please create it. If you are using version 7.2 and higher unzip the contents into your C:\Program Files\Sisense\app\plugins\ folder.

Step 2 - Go to the dashboard’s script and copy paste the following code

dashboard.on('refreshend', function(){
	DashFilters({
		dashboard: dashboard,
		importantFilters: ["[<TABLE_NAME>.<FIELD_NAME>]"]
	});
})

Step 3 - Code configuration

importantFilters: ["[<TABLE_NAME>.<FIELD_NAME>]"] - Add the filters that will always be visible. For date fields, add (calendar) after the filter name.

For example:

importantFilters: ["[commerce.Date (Calendar)]","[category.category]"]

Step 4 - Save the script and refresh the dashboard

Hi Alon,

this stopped working on 6.4, would there be any chance for fix?

How does this interact with dependent filters? Do I need to include all the dependent filters in the 'important' filters list, or only the main one?
