Why is the Searchable DDX brick not filtering the page?

Hi,

This is driving me nuts (someone with very minimal JS). The only code ive changed in the DDX brick is as followed. How come when I select a report number from the DDX brick, no cards get filtered and the global filter doesnt update? However, if I use the control on the right side of app studio, and select a report number, it filters the page and appears in the ddx brick.

Thanks in advance.

    I'm not the expert or anything, but I used that brick as well and it did not work as intended. I spent hours tweaking and ended up getting it to work by deleting filters with blank values after every filter update event.

    You'll need to make sure your app is sending out the filter request to the container. You can use the domo.filterContainer() method outlined here: https://developer.domo.com/portal/e947d87e17547-domo-js#domofiltercontainer

    Its a custom app already built, it already has that container in the JS. I am just not understanding why its not working.
