Use a Parameter in the Filter Bar

Adding a parameter to the canvas' filter bar allows you to set the parameter value for the workbook. You can optionally hide the parameter filter control from users in Present mode.

Note:

Adding a parameter as a filter control functions as a column selector. Adding a parameter as a filter control doesn't filter data.

Using a parameter in the filter bar doesn't provide the same features as a standard filter. For example, it doesn't provide the Top Bottom N, exclude, nulls, and limit values functionalities.

1. On the Home page, hover over a workbook, click Actions, then select Open.
2. In the Data Panel click Parameters.
3. Drag and drop a parameter to canvas' filters bar.
   
   
   
   
4. Click Save to save the workbook.
