Quicksight - filter for all sheets

Question

Hello, I need to be able to create filters in Quicksight that apply to all existing sheets. For example, I want to be able to filter all the visuals (from all sheets) by the "Project" field. So far, I have had to create a filter for that field on each sheet.

Accepted Answer

Hello,

To implement filters in Amazon QuickSight that can be applied across all existing sheets, follow these steps:
1. Create a parameter that represents the desired filter field. For example, generate a parameter for "Project" if you want to filter by project.
2. Add a control (such as a dropdown) to the created parameter. This allows users to select the filter value.
3. Create a filter utilizing the generated parameter. This filter can then be applied to any visual or sheet in the analysis. Update the scope of the filter to **Cross Sheet** to apply the filter to multiple sheets in the dataseset.
