Applying dynamic filter to a subset of visuals in QuickSight automatically


I am building my dashboard using AWS QuickSight. This dashboard contains 8 filters and I need to apply a Dynamic filter using the date as parameter on only a subset of visuals (only 4 of them). For the remaining visuals (means the 4 remaining visuals), I am going to use another date as a filter.

Briefly, the two filters are date 1 and date 2 where the date 1 filters only 4 visuals and the date 2 filters the remaining visuals. Is there any way to make it automatically? because the unique solution was using the custom action assign one filter to table 1 for example and then associate the table 1 with the remaining visuals (table 2, figure 1 and figure 2).

Another problem was that after selecting the date 1, I need to click on table 1 so the filter is going to be applied to table 2, figure 1 and figure 2. I want to avoid this and after selecting the date 1 is going to be automatically applied to table 1 , table 2 and figure 1 and figure 2


Solution

  • In Quicksight filters, there is an option to apply the filter for selected visuals and tables (you can choose which visuals or tables you want to apply filters). You can put multiple filters for multiple tables/visuals and add it to the sheet so that you can change from the sheet
