Default filer selection based on user login

[analyticworld]

I am trying to create a default filter selection based on user login and seems like it doesnt work. 
this is what i have done till now: 

LET vUserRaw = OSUser();

LET vUser = Upper(Trim(SubField(SubField('$(vUserRaw)',';',2),'=',2)));

LET vDefaultSelection =
IF(vUser='xxyy','Sweden',
IF(vUser='bbbb','Norway',''));

and used this '$(vDefaultSelection)' in SimpleFieldSelect object under Selections > Select this one as Default. 
However when I reload this app, it works for the UserID who reloaded the app and takes that as the default filter selection and doesnt dynamically change when an other user logs in. 

- its not ideal for all users to reload the app
- this is not to restrict the data, but just to give default filter selections to users based on their area. 
- I tried the actions also on the sheet properties but that doesnt work. 

Anyother way to do this ? so the filterselection changes dymanic

I had the same idea months ago.

I did like:

Let vCurrentUserEmail = GetUserAttr('userEmail');

Let vCurrentUserID = GetUserAttr('userSubject');

You will want to do this dynamically using an expression for the value selection:

=Pick(
WildMatch(OsUser(),
'*=xxyy'
, '*=bbbb'),
'Sweden'
,'Norway)

This works for a small amount of users. For a larger user list, load up a table of userids and Country and use something like this for your selection expression:

=Only({<user={"=Lower(SubField(OsUser(), '=', 2))"}>} Country)

To set a default filter based on user login in Qlik Sense, use Section Access to link user IDs to specific data, or create a default bookmark based on OSUser(). For dynamic, non-security filtering, use an action button on sheet initialization to select values using expressions like IF(OSUser()='A','Selection1','Selection2'). 

Key Approaches for Default User Filters

• Section Access (Recommended for Security): Restrict data at the engine level. By including user login in the load script and linking them to specific dimension values, Qlik automatically filters the data upon opening.
• Default Bookmarks (UI Level): Define a default bookmark that applies a selection based on the OSUser() function.
• Sheet Actions/Buttons: Utilize sheet action triggers, such as "Select values in a field" upon opening, where the selection value is derived dynamically from the OSUser() or Email function.
• "Always One Selected Value": Set this option in the field properties within the filter pane to ensure a single value is always active, which can be combined with expressions for user-specific defaults. 

Common Issues and Tips

• Dynamic Changes: To ensure the filter changes when another user logs in, ensure the selection formula (e.g., OSUser()) is evaluated dynamically rather than hardcoding a user who reloaded the app.
• Field Selection Limitation: If the requirement is to lock a user to only their data, ensure the selection is robust (e.g., in a required field).
• Apply on Sheet Entry: If using sheet actions, ensure they are configured to run when the sheet is visited.
