how to reuse filter between pages in dashboards?

Hi!
I have a multi-page dashboard based on a handful of tables sharing a common run_id field.
I created a dropdown filter widget on the first page to filter datasets based on the table's run_id field.
It worked fine for this page, but how to reuse it for all pages so that filter set on the first page is applied for all pages?

Hello @alex456897874, can you try this approach?

Create a Global Parameter:
- Navigate to the Data tab of your dashboard.
- Define a new parameter based on the run_id field. This parameter will be used globally across all pages.
Configure the Filter Widget:
- On the first page of your dashboard, add a filter widget.
- Configure this filter widget to use the global parameter you created in the previous step. This ensures that the filter is applied to the run_id field

Hello,

Even when adding a parameter to the dataset this parameter is not updated when switching between pages.

If i provide a link to a dashboard with a parameter filled in and the user navigates to the next page the parameter value from the first page is not taken into account but the default (or null) is chosen instead.

Is this the intended behavior?

Kind regards

I have this same issue - it would be nice to know if there's a resolution. When I switch pages the filter no longer seems to be accounted for

@Alberto_Umana

Your proposed solution does not work. Can you please share an example dashboard file where this setup worked for you?

How can parameters be used cross-page successfully?
