Hi,
I'm relatively new to Power BI and I created D3JS custom visual.
I have problem "filtering on the page". I learnt iframe is considered as a document in PowerBI. How to access the Filter Plane from the custom visual? Another ideas to filter from D3JS custom visual?
Please help! Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @rsree,
You're not able to access anything outside your visual, except using the APIs on offer. You cannot affect the filter pane, but your visual can behave as a slicer. You will need to use the filter APIs for this.
