Cascading Input control in Dashboard

[jflelouarne]

Hello,

I would like to know if thereis a way to pass cascading input controls in a dashboard.

I have a report A with cascading input controls, and it works fine.

I have a report B, with the same input controls, except they are juste datatype (no request).

When I put both in a dashboard, it seems the cascade does not produce anything, and the dashboard stays empty.

From the 6.x samples you can add  /organizations/organization_1/adhoc/topics/Cascading_multi_select_topic to a dashboard, and you'll see that the cascading behavior works.   You can add a second report which relies on the same parameters and the cascading nature still works.

But in certain data conditions, certain datasource relationships, the cascading nature will break and parameter values aren't set propertly.   In the database for the sample above, the relationship of states to countries is 1 to 1.   But if you alter the data to mexico and canada share a state name, then things break.  A defect has been filed.

Hello ghudson,

Thank you for your answer.

In fact, there is little use in cascading controls if they are limited at 1to 1 !

Do you have any news about the defect ? Is there a way for me to follow it ?
