Specify Which Filters to Apply to a Visualization

When you add a visualization to a workbook, Oracle Analytics applies all the existing workbook, canvas, and dashboard filters to the visualization. You can use the Filter This Viz By property to specify which filters you don't want to apply to a visualization.

This property applies to dashboard filter visualizations too.

You can use this property when you want to stop a filter in a higher location from limiting a dashboard filter or a visualization filter.

Any selection steps or filter groups (preview) that affect the visualization are also available to choose from using this property.

  1. On your home page, hover over a workbook, click Actions, then select Open.
  2. Click a visualization to select it.
  3. Click Properties to open the Properties pane, then click Filters.
  4. In the Filter This Viz By section, deselect the items you don't want to apply to the visualization.
