Metadata filter for list

Posted on by CU23101439-0

I need a more advanced Metadata filter for a list.
The "Dynamic Lookup Set" is fine, but I need to filter on some user-permissions that are not directly related to the list or related tables.
It is possible for me to make my own Lookup Set as a dropdown with Liquid and fetchxml, but is it possible to make this dropdown interact with the list...?

Hi

Could you please explain with an example? Looks like you need custom JScript to do this.

Thanks

I actually solved it - with javascript :-)
Added FetchXml and Liquid to the page in order to inject a JSON object embedded in a script tag.
Then, with Jquery, it is easy to clear the filter-dropdown and insert the options that I want.
Not the most beautiful solution, but it works OK.

try the below:

{% assign fetchxml = "<fetch mapping='logical' distinct='true'><entity name='account'><attribute name='name'/></entity></fetch>" %}
{% assign accounts = fetchxml fetchxml %}

<select id="custom-filter">
<option value="">Select an Account</option>
{% for account in accounts.entities %}
<option value="{{ account.id }}">{{ account.name }}</option>
{% endfor %}
</select>
