Dashboard view with Filtered Data

[admin_nasra]

Hi , 

in my app i have created a galaxy view where user selects system , upon clicking on a particular system another view opens and there all the related towers of that system are displayed.

now I want to create a dashboard view in which all the data related to that tower is displayed but dashboard view is not getting tower id from previous view where towers are displayed and filter data based on that tower id , instead of this it is displaying all the data of that table.

i have tried [_thisrow] on row filter condition of slice and also through action linktofilteredview but its not passing the Tower ID to Dashboard view or dashboard is not getting ID from previous view.

please help me out

thanks in advance

Are you using Interactive Dashboard?  There is a setting in the Dashboard View to turn this on.  The intent of the Interactive Dashboard is to be able to highlight a row in one view and all other views are filtered.  For this to work, there must be proper relationships/links (e.g. Ref columns) between all the tables involved to know how to filter.

You might want to check out the Interactive Dashboard sample app.  Also search the community for other posts about Interactive Dashboard.

Hi WillowMobileSys,

Thanks for your prompt reply , Interactive dashboard is used when we select something with in that dashboard , i am talking about previous view which is a gallery view and i want that when user clicks any tab in that gallery view it opens a dashboard view that displays filtered data based on that Id which relates to that column in gallery view where user had clicked.

Got it!  There isn't an AppSheet feature to support this.  However, you can build your own.  Basically you need to preserve the "selected" row.  I would create a special utility table for this.  All it needs is to save the row selected and for which user.  You can then create Slices for each of the views to be presented in the Dashboard that are filtered by this utility table.  Next create views from the Slices and add them to your Dashboard.

When a user taps on a Gallery item, saved the associated row to the utility table and then navigate to the Dashboard.  The views in the Dashboard will be filtered by the chosen row.
