Embed - Javascript Filtering

Hey!

 

I have a report embedded into my website, and I'm trying to set up filtering based on user roles by adding a filter to the config using javascript.

 

const basicFilter = {
        $schema: "http://powerbi.com/product/schema#basic",
        target: {
          table: "someTable",
          column: "someColumn"
        },
        operator: "In",
        values: ['valueBasedOnRole'],
        filterType: 1,
      };
 
This filter works fine for most of my users, they mostly have one or two values which I can add to a list. My Question is for my Admin Users; I want to basically filter on 'All' (letting all the values pass through the filter). Is there a value, or operator/value combination which lets me do this, eg. "*" or "All".
 
I know this is the same as just not applying the filter, or adding all the values in the filter ( with over 300 different values this isn't really an option) so I'm mostly curious how this kind of filtering works and wanting to have an answer for future cases.
