Hi Team,

We are building a dataset PCF control where we want to add a column of a link entity through add column method. Let us say we are adding a column of contact entity which is a link entity of account and our PCF control is on account entity home grid.

If the view of account contains any filters of same contact link entity then they disappears and those filters are not applied on the view, which in result ruins the data visualization.

However, if we switch to the OOB Home Grid view from the PCF control then the filters appear again.

We also debugged and found that the filters are present in the link entity (we found it through getLinkedEnities method) and while adding the column there were no errors that point toward our issue.

So this means that if we add the column of the same link entity whose filters are present in the view then the view filters of that link entity won’t work.

It seems this is a known issue, kindly let us know if this is being addressed by the PCF team.

Any further suggestions would be highly appreciated. @AnqiChen

Thanks!

Sheldon
