Qliksense_Selection_between_apps

Apply selection of field values across multiple apps using native/ built-in filter components

An example to demonstrate application of filters across multiple apps using native filter commponents and qlik apis. This requires no new filter components built andd saves time. More details can be found here http://www.codewander.com/qliksense-mashup-apply-filters-across-two-or-more-apps/

The Approach

1. Classify one app as primary and another app as secondary.

  1. Show the filter component from the primary app that has the common filters

  2. add listener to listen to the selection event

  3. In the listener, pass the selection values to the secondary app

What you lose?

selection on chart objects from secondary app will not reflect on the primary app. We negotiated with customers to make selections from the filter components and disabled selections on those chcarts

What you gain?

No overhead of writing custom filter components and hence no worry about performance.
