loadDashboard resets filters

[kajyr]

Hi! I noticed that .loadDashboard resets the filters applied with the .updateFilters call, it is intended?

Let me explain better:

I have 2 dashboards, set up with the same filters. I embed the first

LookerEmbedSDK.createDashboardWithId(dashboard)
    .appendTo("#dashboard")
    .withNext()
    .withFilters({...})
    .build()
    .connect()
    .then((dashboard: LookerEmbedDashboard) => {
      return dashboard;
    });

I then change some toggles in the page, and call dashboard.updateFilters({...}).

Now if I change the dashboard to the second "page" with dashboard.loadDashboard(otherDashboard)
I see that the new dashboard does not have the new filter set, but it went to the default setup in Looker.

In case this is not a bug, what is the suggested way to bring the same filters across two (compatible) dashboards?

Thanks!

This may or may not be related, but calling LookerEmbedSDK.createDashboardWithUrl(mySignedUrlWithSomeParams) and subsequently calling dashboard.loadDashboard(otherDashboard) will cause params like hide_filters to not be applied to the newly loaded dashboard.

Maybe loadDashboard should support withParams ?

I agree, this feels like a major miss. I have to let the new dashboard load, then set the filters and any other options, which causes a long delay for users to see the data they want! Additionally, it makes additional calls to the queries in BigQuery causing more requests and higher costs!
