Filter dashboard instances

You can use the following REST APIs to filter the data that is returned when you create or update an instance of a dashboard, including clearing the filter selections.

  • POST /api/dossiers/{dossierId}/instances Create an instance of a specific dashboard with the existing filter applied, including clearing all of the current filter selections.
  • PUT /api/dossiers/{dossierId}/instances/{instanceId}/filters Execute an existing dashboard instance with new filter selections, including clearing all of the current filter selections.

We have provided a workflow sample that illustrates how to create an instance of a dashboard with an existing filter applied, and then re-execute the same dashboard instance with updated selections for the same filter.

For detailed information about filtering data in dashboards, see the MicroStrategy product help.
