WAB Filter Widget, how to set dropdown selected option programatically?

RamónVélez — Thu, 30 May 2019 21:13:22 GMT

Hi, I'm using the Filter Widget in an application created with Web AppBuilder 2.11 Developer Edition.

Is there a way I can set programatically the value of a dropdown shown by the filter?

In the image above I have set up the filter widget to ask for values from a field in a specific layer.
I want to programatically set that dropdown value so it filters the layer with the corresponding expression.

The value I want to set is already listed in the dropdown.

If that is not possible, is there a way to specify programatically the options that the dropdown must show?

Any ideas on how to do that?

Regards,

Ramon Velez

Is this what you are trying to do?

Predefined values?

In the application I want to show only a specific subset of all the possible values depending on the logged user.

So I must assign dinamically which values the dropdown must show.

Thanks for your reply.
