Trouble with capability API - field selectValues

[jgunders]

Trying to set up a mashup with two apps and shared filters.  There is a listener on the selectionState of the first app like this:

which sets the field selectValues of the second app.  This works for some fields but not all.  I looked at one of the problem fields using

app.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').getData();

compared to:

app1.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').getData();

and it is identical in both apps.  I also tried setting it directly as numeric and text:

app1.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').selectValues([2016], true, true);

app1.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').selectValues(['2016'], true, true);

but no luck.

Any ideas on what to try next?

have you tried like below

app1.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').selectValues(2016, true, true);

or have you tried with
selectMatch method ? , is this working ?

or you can provide your js code , may be i can help

I tried:

app1.field('METRIC DATE.YEAR').selectValues(2016, true, true);

but it throws:

e.forEach is not a function

I attached the source.  Thanks!

Try with [] since the field name contains spaces:

app1.field(‘[METRIC DATE.YEAR]’)...

Thanks for the help with this @ErikWetterberg and @agni_gold .  Turns out it is a problem of text verses numeric.   Looks like all the selections from selectionState are text but my selections can be text and numeric ☹️.  I'm going to force all my shared dimensions to be text.
