jsonFilters empty after bookmark load

Hey,

 

I need help with bookmarks and the filter api in a custom visual. Right now I am applying filters like this (I need to filter my own visual and all other visual):

    // Invoke the self filter.
    this._visualHost.applyJsonFilter(
      filterList,
      "general",
      "selfFilter",
      powerbi.FilterAction.merge
    );
    // Invoke the filter for the other visuals.
    this._visualHost.applyJsonFilter(
      filterList,
      "general",
      "filter",
      powerbi.FilterAction.merge
    );

 

In the update method I get the restored filter values from the jsonFilter object like this:

const jsonFilterValues: powerbi.IFilter[] = options.jsonFilters;

 

This work fine if I just switch between pages of the report with actives filters, but this does not work, if I save a filter state in a bookmark. If I filter the report with my visual, create a new bookmark and select it afterwards the created filters are gone and the options.jsonFilters object is empty. What am I missing?

 

regards
