Custom Visual Filter - Desktop - LocalStorage Problem

Anonymous — Sat, 06 Nov 2021 15:49:52 GMT

Hello guys,

i developed an custom filter for iso calender weeks for my company.

It works very well, but iam not able to save the current filter to the localstorage. It seems to work on the web but not in the desktop version.

import ILocalVisualStorageService = powerbi.extensibility.ILocalVisualStorageService; constructor(options: VisualConstructorOptions){ this.storage = options.host.storageService; }

in my first update cycle i check for the localstorage and set if necessary.

//to get data in async function let cache = await this.storage.get("filter"); //to set data in async function await this.storage.set("filter", "xyz");

Is it possible to use the localstorage in Desktop?

Kind Regards

Tobias

Hi @Anonymous,

I personally haven't tried it in Desktop, but does your visual meet the requirements for being able to use the API? The two key ones are that it must be in AppSource and certified. If so, then it should be a case of emailing the team to request access on a per visual basis.
