The following section describes some issues in the current release of the Tableau Embedding API v3 where the API or the platform does not behave as expected.
For information about what is new or has changed in each release, see the Release Notes for the Tableau Embedding API v3.
activateSheetAsync() when switching tabs from a worksheet or dashboard to a story results in an error.The <viz-filter> child element of the <tableau-viz> web component does not handle the implicit “(All)” value correctly. In the Tableau user interface, the “(All)” value in a quick filter means show all values.
If you embed a view that already has a filter applied, and you specify an empty string as the value (value = ""), which means “show all” or that no filter should be applied, the setting is ignored. The original filter value is still shown.
<!-- Applies the filter value "2014" -->
<tableau-viz

<viz-filter field="Academic Year" value="2014"/>
</tableau-viz>
<!-- Should show "(All)" values, but is ignored -->
