Issue with applying multiple filters across different fields using app.field().selectValues()

[AyeshaChhapra]

I’m facing an issue with applying filters dynamically in my app. My goal is that whenever a user selects a field name and value, a filter should be created for that selection and applied to the UI.

Currently, I’m using:

app.field().selectValues()

This works fine for a single field. However, the problem arises when a user makes selections across multiple fields (e.g., vendor: xyz, city: abc). In that case, only one filter gets applied — either the first or the last one depending on the toggle. Multiple filters never get applied at the same time.

Has anyone run into this before? How can I apply multiple selections across different fields programmatically so that all of them persist on the UI?

Sample Code:

 await Promise.all([

          app.field('[VENDOR NAME]').selectValues([{ qText: 'BOSCH' }], false, false),

          app.field('CITY').selectValues([{ qText: 'Mumbai' }], false, false)

        ]);

Thanks in advance!

Hey @AyeshaChhapra , are you sure that the selections you are applying is a valid selection? Can you apply the same selection in Qlik app and share with us if it is working or not?

Your code seems ok, so I guess maybe one selection is removing the other because are not linked in data model.

Hey @alex_colombo 

I checked: the column names and the selected values exist. I can pick one value at a time, and that works. But picking both values at once doesn’t.

• Column names exist: yes
• Single value works: yes
• Both values together: not working

Did you try to apply the selections for both values direclty in the Qlik app? Just want to be sure that this is not a Qlik data model issue or wrong selections.

@alex_colombo yes, I can apply selections for both directly in the Qlik app

can you please try to modify your code in this way and give it a try?
await app.field('[VENDOR NAME]').selectValues([{ qText: 'BOSCH' }], false, false),

await app.field('CITY').selectValues([{ qText: 'Mumbai' }], false, false)
