Advance Filter on Measures with IFilterMeasureTarget

[Capono]

Hi, I was trying to implement the advance filter as shown for the sampleSlicer for API 1.7.0. This works great.

My question is now is it also possible to filter on measures, since I found the target IFilterMeasureTarget for the target value. If yes what do I have to put for table and measure for the target values?

Looking forward to an answer, thanks.

With Regards

Hello @Capono

I think that you should use something like this:

let valueColumn: DataViewValueColumn = this.dataView.categorical.values[0];

let target: IFilterColumnTarget = {
    table: valueColumn.source.queryName.substr(0, valueColumn.source.queryName.indexOf('.')),
    column: valueColumn.source.displayName
};

return target;

Please let me know if this code resolves the issue.

Hi,
thanks .
This works only if the measures are not aggregated, i already tried that and this works only if you have the correct table name and the correct column name which is not the case on aggregated values. I was hoping to be able on Filterung by a aggregated measures with .IFilterMeasureTarget.

Have you tried something like this?

let valueColumn: DataViewValueColumn = this.dataView.categorical.values[0];

let target: IFilterMeasureTarget = {
    table: valueColumn.source.queryName.substr(0, valueColumn.source.queryName.indexOf('.')),
    measure: valueColumn.source.queryName,
};

return target;

Please let me know if that works. Otherwise, it'd be better to create a question at powerbi-models GitHub repository.

Thanks, for your time. This didn't work there should be a documentation how to use this.

It'd be good if you could create an issue at Power BI Models GitHub.

There're experienced developers who develop and support the Advanced Filter.
