Beast Mode HTML Filter Value

I am trying to accomplish something that I feel should be very easy to do but can't figure out how to do it in Domo. What I am trying to do is add a link,  field or button that has a more reader friendly name such as "View More" or "Drill Down Deeper" but the value / filter value is let's say for example, a date.  

 

concat('<div><a href="',fieldName,'">View More</a>') OR concat('<div><button value="',fieldName,'">View More</button></div>')  

 

View More    |   2018-07-19   |   My Data Report   |   $5,391

View More    |   2018-07-18   |   My Data Report   |   $4,912

View More    |   2018-07-17   |   My Data Report   |   $3,453

 

The "View More" would drill down and add the filter of the date field in the next column (example: if 1st View More is clicked, add " 2018-07-19" as the filter in the drill down.

 

Thanks!

    I'm not aware of a way to accomplish this to continue in your drill path on your current card. However, you can setup the View More button to apply as a dynamic filter to a new page in Domo. So you can have either one or multiple cards on the new page that all get filtered by whatever the user clicked on.

     

    Here's a link to info on Page Analyzer Links: https://knowledge.domo.com/Visualize/Adding_Cards_to_Domo/KPI_Cards/Transforming_Data_Using_Beast_Mo...

    Here's a sample of one:

    CONCAT('<a href=''https://domain.domo.com/page/Page#Here?pfilters=['
    ,'{"column":"ColumnName","dataSourceId":"Enter Datasource ID Here","dataType":"string","operand":"IN","values":["'
    ,`ColumnName`
    ,'"]}]'
    ,'''target="_blank" title="Open in Domo">',`ColumnName`,'</a>'
    )

    This allows you to have a new page open and apply filters based on the "series" being clicked on.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Interesting work around.  Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll see if that flow could work for us.  I do wish the drill path filters were url parameters or the ability to modify drill filters were allowed.  I think it would really improve the way users can drill down on table data. 

     

    Best,
