Qlick Sense 3.0 How to programmatically set selections by value?

Anonymous — Wed, 31 Aug 2016 10:19:58 GMT

Hello!

I'm beginner in qlik and I'm trying work with Qlick Sense 3.0 programmatically

I'm working with application described here

This time, i want to set selections for field programmatically.

I can do it by next commands and it works:

app.field('Year').select([0], false, false);

app.field('Year').select([0, 1, 2], true, true);

app.field('Year').selectMatch('1997', true);

app.field('Year').selectAll();

But when I'm trying to select multiple values by value, nothing happening.

my code is:

app.field('Year').selectValues([{qText: '1997'}, {qText: '1998'}, {qText: '1999'}], true, true);

Example I took from this instructions:

When I'm printing field values in console by next code:

$.each(app.field('Year').getData().rows, function(key, value) {
  console.log(value.qText);
});

I'm receiving correct values:

Thanks

Please assist...

Hi,

My guess will be that those FieldValues have a Numeric representation, while you are sending only qText:

You should check if qNumeric === true and if so send instead qNumber && qNumeric.

Thanks, Alham!

looks like for my purpose enough and it works:

app.field('Year').selectValues([1997, 1998, 1999, 2000], true, true);
