Filter Interactions with other Filters

Dear Domo Support,

We can set filters interacting with other filters in a dashboard. However, when we change a filter selection, the selections in the other filters are as is and this can show invalid or no data in the cards.

Here's the filter interaction scenario. We have 4 filters. Filter 1 interacts with filters 2, 3, and 4. Filter 2 interacts with filters 3 and 4. Filter 3 interacts with filter 4. The interactions are linear and in one direction only.

Filter 1 → Filter 2 → Filter 3 → Filter 4

Can we have a feature added wherein when a filter selection is updated, the remaining filters should have their selections reset.

For example, if a new selection is made in Filter 2, then Filters 3 and 4 would get reset (all selections would be de-selected). So when Filter 3 and 4 get reset, the respective cards would only show results from Filters 1 and 2. Filter 1 would remain as is as Filter 2 does not interact with Filter 1.

Hope this scenario explains the idea.

    please implement this. Not relevant values should be removed and filters should reset once other value selected in other filter

    I agree, this approach will prevent the cards from breaking and avoid confusing the end user. It also eliminates the need to remove filters just to reset everything.

    this is causing massive confusion with users and gives the appearance that something isn't working.

    User filters on filter 1 ⇒ filter 2 ⇒ filter 3 then at some point adjusts filter 1. bang the board is broken.
