Release notes

  • Refactored filtering APIs will be available in API 2.2 and are not supported in API 2.1.

  • Visuals will only receive the dataView type that was declared in their capabilities. Visuals that used multiple dataView types will break as a result of this update.

  • No longer supports DataViewScopeIdentity interface, replaced with data.DataRepetitionSelector interface. If you used key property of the DataViewScopeIdentity interface, you can replace it with JSON.stringify(identity)

  • undefined is replaced with null inside the dataView. When iterating over an array using var item in myArray it skips on undefined, but doesn’t skip on null. Visuals that use this pattern may be broken by this update. Make sure to check for null in arrays:

    for (var item in myArray) {
   if (!item) {
     continue;
   }
   console.log(item);
}

  • The proto property no longer stores hidden metadata\data inside the dataView. Visuals that access properties via proto may be broken by this update.
