How do I use a function to make a selection?

[GrantBooth]

Is it possible to use a function to make a selection from a field?

I have a variable v.SelectedContainer, I would like to select a value from field Chart based on the selected variable. This might seem strange but there is a reason I'm trying to do it this way.

So something like if($(v.SelectedContainer), = 1, select Chart = 1) Ideally I would not like to use IF as there are about 30 selections in Selected Container.

Hi @GrantBooth, have a look at this thread on how to get a value from selected value in filter pane and let me know if it helped. Cheers 😊

Thanks for the response, I was able to find a different solution by approaching the problem a little differently. Yours is definitely good, I will remember that one for next time
