Use Visual as a Filter for another visual

Hello, I have this visual on the top of a page, and I would like to filter a news feed (on the bottom of the page), when you press the YYYYMM (circled in Red).  How would I go about that?  Thanks. ...

    Do you have the filter direction defined correctly?

     

    It should be either of these

    1. GraphTable->Datetable->newsfeed 

    2. If Datetable is a dimension(ideally it should) then the arrows should be Datetable->Graphtable and Datetable->Newsfeed. Then your graph Yearmth should be from Datetable.

    3. All the filter direction should be bidirectional if it is not giving circular reference error.

     

    For you to slice from the graph with relationship defined as Graphtbl->datetbl and Newsfeed->Datetbl as you mentioned, make the filter direction as bidirection(Approach 3). If you get circular reference error(i don't know what other tables you have), follow approach 2.

     

    If this helps, mark it as a solution

    Kudos are nice too
