Is it possible to filter a data source via two separate data actions without manually clearing the first selection?

I have a map in my experience whose purpose is to display data that shares a common value with data selected on other pages. For example, a user selects a record from a list on Page 1. A list on Page 1 has a data action set up to filter the records in the map based on a common value in the selected record. This same data action is set up on Page 2, which uses a second copy of the same data on Page 1. When the data is filtered through the list on Page 1, the filter succeeds on the map, but if the user then goes to Page 2 and selects a new record (prompting the map to filter based on this new value), no features are shown on the map. It seems like without manually clearing the selection on Page 1, the filter remains and produces no results when the map is attempted to be filtered a second time.

Hi @Rgehman,

It is currently not possible.

For "Record selection changes -> Filter," you should clear the selection in the same widget where the record was selected.

We will consider how to better solve this issue.

Thanks,

Hi Ke,

Have there been any changes in regard to this issue? I have still not found a way around this but it would greatly improve the functionality of my Experience.

Thanks,

Ryan
