How do I share filter/search criteria between dashboard tiles using page variables in Decisions?

RichterBell

Hello,

I’m building a dashboard and want to filter data structure using search criteria entered in a form tile, then display the filtered results in other tiles. I tried setting page variables in the output flow of the form tile and using the Get Page Variable step in a simple tile, but the variables are always blank. How can I pass filter/search criteria from one tile to another on the same dashboard?

Hello,

To share filter or search criteria between dashboard tiles using page variables, you must set and access the page variables within an active form flow—not the output flow. Page variables set in the output flow are not persisted for use by other tiles.

Please try the following steps:

1. Use an active form flow in your form tile to set the page variables with your search/filter criteria.
2. In other tiles, use the Get Page Variable step within their own active form flows to access the values.
3. This ensures the variables are available across tiles on the dashboard.

After switching to active form flows for setting and getting page variables, your tiles will be able to share data.

Hope this helps!
