How to pass filters between widgets?

[Alexwang]

I am relatively new to the WAB development. I have two widgets in my application which need to communicate with each other. So if the the attribute queries change in one widget, i need to pass the filters to another widget and update the query results when a click event is trigger on the first widget. How to achieve it?

Alex,

  Sounds like you want to look into Widget Communication Communication between widgets—Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS (Developer Edition) | ArcGIS for Developers . Also in WAB 2.0 there is a sample of widget communication: client\stemapp\widgets\samplewidgets\WidgetCommunication

@Alexwang how did you access the click event of the filter widget?
