The present disclosure pertains to linked filter groups for linking a driver element of a user interface to a receiver element of the user interface such that data filters applied to driver element are propagated to the receiver element. A first linked group may include a first set of filters for a first visualization of the driver element and a first set of element identifiers of other elements in the user interface, including a first identifier of a first receiver element. When updating visualizations of the receiver element, the first set of filters of the first linked group may be aggregated with a second set of filters of the first receiver element based on the receiver element being a member of the first linked group. As such, the updates to the receiver element are based on both sets of filters.

Linked filter groups

Embodiments relate to a dynamic text provider that generates and communicates a text object to a text consumer (e.g., a table with a text header, a chart having text axis labels and/or title). An engine is positioned between a dynamic text service, and an underlying data set organized according to a model with hierarchical elements (e.g., measures, dimensions, pages). The engine receives an input from the text consumer. The input includes at least a first identifier of the text consumer, a second identifier of the data set, and a third identifier of a specific element (e.g., dimension) of the model. The engine references the model to create a context. Based upon that context, the engine queries the data set to generate a dynamic text object including a list of values (LOV) for the dimension. The dynamic text object including the LOV is communicated to the text consumer.
