Dashboards Spatial Filter Not Working

In Dashboards, I want to create a spatial relationship between a table with point values (grouped by species name) and a polygon layer on a map (county boundaries). I would like to set it up where I can select a species name, and the counties are filtered to only display those that contain that species. However, the spatial filter method appears to not work in that way. The attached picture shows this issue. I select a species that has 2 points, and thus, the 2 counties that contain these points should be the only ones appearing. However, all counties that are within the extent of these 2 points appear. It appears to be an intersect relationship with the point's boundaries, not the points themselves.

Is this a bug within Dashboards that the developers can fix? If not, is anyone aware of any sort of work around?

Hi Alex it would be useful to share screenshots of your spatial filter as well, cheers.

As a workaround, could you add a key to your species points for which county they are in, then you could do a direct relationship between the two.
